Ferencvaros vs BSC Young Boys
UEFA Champions League
Date: 24 August 2021, Tuesday
Kick-off at 19:45 UK/ 20:45 CET
Venue: Groupama Arena (Budapest).
Young Boys carry a slender one-goal lead to Ferencvaros for the Champions League second leg play-off.
We saw a thriller at Bern last week, David Wagner’s men hold off imminent threat from the Hungarian outfit after reduced to 10-men in the first half.
Ferencvaros have every reason to feel agitated with the result since they had a penalty miss and goal ruled out for offside when the score was level at 1-1.
But it was smart work prevailed over hard work and Young Boys snatched a 3-2 win, deservingly so.
These two teams have plenty of experience playing at this level. Ferencvaros were in the group stage last season while Young Boys are looking to return for the first time since 2018.
Ferencvaros won all the three qualifying fixtures at home without conceding a goal. This include a memorable 2-0 win against Slavia Prague in the previous round.
They won 4 of the 6 games played in the competition so far and all wins came with -1.5 AH. Meantime; they scored at least 2 goals in 5 of the 6 overall played in the competitions.
Young Boys drew both their away fixtures this season. And they had won just 1 of their last 14 fixtures in Champions League, while losing 10 of them.
There were no other head-to-head meetings between Ferencvaros and Young Boys prior to this Champions League tie.
We have every reason to expect a similar contest as in Bern at the Groupama Arena in Budapest this week. The lead is too narrow and these two teams are known for their attacking oriented fluid football. Meantime, both struggled defensively across all competitions this season.
Therefore, we will go with both teams to score & over 2.5 goals combo as the best bet for this game.
Brave punters can back the over 1.5 goals in the second half, priced at decent 1.72 odd.
