Young Boys vs Thun: match statistics
Thun are in significantly better form and league position, sitting in 1st place with an impressive record of 21 wins this season. The visitors have an excellent away record with 85% of matches won and have not recorded a single match without scoring (FTS% 0%). Young Boys, despite a decent home form (62% wins), are only in 5th place and in the last 5 matches have been averaging just 1.8 points per game, while Thun have been achieving 2.6 points. The identical goal difference of both teams (+17 in their matches) and comparable xG values (1.88 for both) suggest an even offensive quality, however, Thun's consistency and form speak in their favor. Taking all statistics into account, Thun have a higher chance of winning, although Young Boys as the home team could cause an upset, hence the relatively high probability of a draw.
