Young Boys v Inter
📅
Kick Off: Wednesday 23rd October at 20:00
🏆
Competition: UEFA Champions League
📺
Watch Live: TNT Sports 7
Unbeaten Inter travel to Switzerland to face Young Boys who are yet to pick up a point in the Champions League. The hosts have also been struggling domestically, currently sitting third from bottom in the Swiss Super League on just nine points.
Inter’s 1-0 victory on the road against Roma puts them second in Serie A, two points shy of Conte’s Napoli and although they wouldn’t admit it, it’s broadly appreciated that Inter may be prioritising the Champions League over the Scudetto this season, having come so close two years back.
⭐ Young Boys v Inter Best Bets
Monteiro has committed at least two fouls in eight of his last ten outings for Young Boys, with an overall league average of 2.20 fouls per 90 minutes.
Impressively, this includes a brief 15-minute appearance against Yverdon-Sport, where he made three fouls, and a 45-minute stint against Lausanne-Sport, resulting in four fouls. His record from this season is pretty consistent with his past form, with the Swiss international averaging 2.37 fouls per 90 in the league and 2.04 per 90 in the UCL last season.

🔍 Young Boys v Inter Players to Watch
🔵 Lautaro Martinez
Martinez claimed the Serie A Golden Boot last season with 24 goals in 33 league matches, alongside a further 3 assists. This marked the third consecutive season he surpassed the 20-goal mark. He followed this with another standout performance in the Copa America, scooping up the Golden Boot by scoring five goals in six matches as Argentina won the tournament.
This season, Martinez has continued his excellent form, tallying seven goal contributions in his last six games (15+ minutes), contributing at least one in all but one match.
🟡 Mohamed Ali Camara
This season, the Camara has played nine matches across the Champions League and Swiss Super League, committing at least one foul in eight of those games. On average, he’s committed 2.13 fouls per 90 minutes in the league and has sinned in all four of his Champions League appearances. Up next, he faces Lautaro Martinez, a notoriously difficult forward who’s averaging 1.76 fouls drawn per 90 minutes.
Martinez maintained similar averages of being fouled 1.99 times per 90 last season and 2.20 the season before.

💻 Young Boys v Inter Form and Tactics
Young Boys are likely to set up in a 4-2-3-1 with the emphasis no doubt on defensive solidity and risk-minimisation. In terms of creating chances, Young Boys are likely to rely on launching structured counter-attacks, although this is atypical of how they might otherwise play against weaker opposition.
They will operate with a lone striker who stays high to provide an outlet for long balls, while the advanced midfielders support from deeper positions, ensuring they can get back when needed. This will be particularly necessary given the number of men Inter tends to be willing to commit forward under Inzaghi when in search of a goal.
Inter Milan operate in a 3-5-2 but perhaps their most important tactical attribute is the flexibility of that structure over the course of the match. The wing-backs play a crucial and fairly constant role in creating width, while the midfield and forwards adjust dynamically to different game scenarios.
The fluidity of their buildup play allows Inter to adapt their shape depending on the positioning of the opposition, deriving new passing lanes and creating space in between the opposition lines. The two forwards (probably Martinez and Taremi) then interchangeably drop deeper to draw out defenders, in doing so creating space for the other striker to exploit.
