Thun – Young Boys Tip Swiss Super League, Matchday 2 on Saturday, 01/08/26 at 20:30
Last season’s surprise champions are not expected to do too much. Bookmakers with Paysafecard estimate a general championship odds of 5.00, while on the 2nd matchday they will not even enter the arena as favorites despite home advantage!
According to my Thun Young Boys Bern tip, this is a mistake. Nevertheless, with Draw-no-Bet: Thun at odds of around 1.66, I prefer to build a small hedge into my bet to be on the safe side. In the event of a point split, my stake is protected from loss.
FC Thun may have given up Franz-Ethan Meichtry in the summer and have just been eliminated from the Champions League qualifiers, but YB, who were very disappointing last season, still have to convince me to be my old self again!
Thun vs. Young Boys Bern AI predictions:
Our data model did not feign fatigue, but carried out intensive calculations in the background on request in order to be able to present me with a useful Thun Young Boys Bern AI forecast in time for the 2nd Super League matchday.
I evaluated these for you afterwards and found them to be good right away, at least the first suggestion. Because Over 2.5 goals & both teams score does not promise a monster payout with 1.57, but I rate this combination bet as relatively safe.
YB shot on all cylinders in the pre-season and won the opening game against Sion 4-2. But the reigning champions proved with the 3-1 against Lucerne and the subsequent 2-3 against Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League that they are also suitable for this type of bet!

In addition, our digital bettor has made me another usable suggestion, which can be found in the offer of Betano, a betting provider with cashout, at odds of about 1.52.
This is the selection Win a half: Thun. YB upgraded in the summer, no question, but the chances are still good that the reigning champions will dictate the course of the game at least in phases.
In any case, the past duels, especially the historic 11-goal game in May, have shown the enormous entertainment potential of this pairing. Therefore, the Asian handicap Over 4.0 goals to 2.75 would also be worth considering.
