Stuttgart vs Young Boys Match Analysis & Prediction
11/12/2024 11:00 pm
Stuttgar, looking to break into the top 24 of the Champions League standings, play host to bottom-placed Young Boys at MHPArena on Wednesday night for matchday 6 of the league phase.
The hosts sit in 27th position in the table with four points from five matches, while the visitors are in 36th, having yet to pick up a point after losing all five of their games.
Sebastian Hoeness’ side have a record of one win, one draw and three losses in their five league phase matches, leaving them just two points behind 24th-placed Real Madrid in the final qualification spot.
With just three matches remaining, Stuttgart are in desperate need of points to strengthen their chance of placing in the to 24, and Hoeness may fancy his side’s chances considering their favourable games against 36th-placed Young Boys and 35th-placed Slovan Bratislava, although followed by a challenging encounter with 25th-placed Paris Saint-Germain.
However, they did divastatingly lose their last Champions League match 5-1 to Red Star Belgrade, though they have bounced back with a draw against Werder Bremen and back-to-back wins over SSV Jahn Regensburg and Union Berlin.
Meanwhile, Young Boys come into this contest as one of only three teams in the Champions League still searching for their first point of the league phase, having lost all five of their matches so far.
Their European struggles coincide with a miserable start to their domestic campaign, as they currently sit ninth in the Swiss Super League table with 20 points after 17 matches, from five wins five draws and seven losses.
Joel Magnin, who took over as caretaker manager last season after Raphael Wicky’s dismissal and guided the team to the Swiss Super League title, once again stepped in on an interim basis in October following the dismissal of Patrick Rahmen after a poor start to the campaign.
However, Magnin has not been able to relicate his previous positive impact, losing five of his 12 matches, along with five wins and two draws, including a heavy 6-1 defeat to Atalanta BC in their last Champions League game and a 3-1 loss to FC Sion in their most recent game.
With wins in their final three matches against Stuttgart, Celtic and Red Star Belgrade of paramount importance if they are to have any chance of placing in the top 24, Magnin will be desperate for his side to secure their first victory of the Champions League campaign here.
