Bern: topicality and form

Last year, Young Boys Berne failed to retain their crown of Swiss champions. They had won the last four editions of the Swiss Super League and were the favorites to be crowned again. But they have fished too often on their travels as they have only won five away games. They gave up their title hopes relatively early in the season and finished 16 points behind Zurich.

They were also engaged in the Champions League, since only the first in the championship has the right to play in the preliminary rounds of the most prestigious European competition. They did not go beyond the group stages but had inherited an extremely strong group with Villarreal, Atalanta and Manchester United. The transfer window was quite lively with the ambition to regain first place this season.

Zurich: topicality and form

What a season for FC Zurich, which returned to the heights of the Swiss championship for the first time since 2009. After a big slump, the club returned to its best level and created a surprise by surpassing the clubs of Bern and Basel . The 2022-2023 season should therefore be exciting for the club, which will also have to compete in the Champions League. At least, if he manages to qualify since he will have to go through the play-off rounds with a double confrontation against Qarabag at the end of the month.

Until then, the Zurich people will want to get back into the league, and this big match against Bern is a perfect opportunity to test themselves for the start of the school year. The club could benefit from a comfortable financial windfall and therefore recruit in anticipation of its new objectives. Anyway, a defeat in the first game would be a task.
