Young Boys have lost only three of their last 15 matches. Aston Villa last played in the main European tournament in the 1982/1983 season. The two teams have never faced each other before.

Young Boys 

The “Bees” had an excellent last season and deservedly won the Swiss Championship gold medals. However, in the new Swiss Super League campaign, Young Boys had a poor start, losing in the first three rounds to Sion (1-2), Servette (1-3), and St. Gallen (0-4). In early August, they managed to stabilize the situation, drawing two matches in the league and earning their first points.

Since then, the “Bees” have not lost. In the Champions League qualifiers, the Swiss champions twice defeated Istanbul’s Galatasaray – 3-2 at home and 1-0 away. In the last round of the Super League, Young Boys drew 1-1 at home with Lausanne, and over the weekend, they won 4-2 away against Vevey in the Swiss Cup.

Aston Villa

The “Villans” were a pleasant surprise last season, finishing fourth in the toughest league in the world. This earned Aston Villa a spot in the Champions League, and the match against Young Boys will be their first in this year’s European campaign. The Birmingham side has seriously prepared for their European debut, strengthening their squad with players like Ian Maatsen and Amadou Onana.

It’s worth noting that Aston Villa started the Premier League with an away win against West Ham (2-1). However, they couldn’t secure points at home against Arsenal, as the Gunners claimed a 2-0 victory. In the last two rounds, Unai Emery’s team returned to winning ways, defeating Leicester and Everton. As a result, Aston Villa sits in fifth place in the Premier League standings, with nine points.
