Cimbom still manage a comeback against Young Boys?
A clear-cut affair: Young Boys from Bern shocked Turkish record champions Galatasaray a week ago and set the course for the group stage with a 3-2 win in the first leg. Cimbom are now under pressure to win in the second leg. However, the Galatasaray vs Young Boys odds for betting tip 1 suggest good chances for a turnaround on Tuesday evening
If Galatasaray win the second leg by one goal, the game will go into extra time against Young Boys. Last week, the Turkish representative did not make a good impression and even came away with a narrow defeat. Young Boys Bern dominated the encounter for long stretches
A double strike from Michy Batshuayi ensured the equalizer in the meantime. However, “Cimbom” buckled in the closing stages and squandered the draw in Bern. To win the second leg, Galatasaray will have to improve significantly, especially defensively.

Galatasaray – Statistics & current form
Galatasaray are on thin ice after the bitter defeat in the first leg against Young Boys. The lions from Istanbul surprisingly lost the match in Bern. Cimbom were already 2-0 down before the break. The Turkish record champions only got into the game better in the second half.
Despite the narrow defeat against the Young Boys, there are still realistic chances of advancing to the group stage of the Champions League. Home advantage in the second leg suits the Turkish record champions. Galatasaray have only lost two of their last 18 competitive matches at home this season and in all competitions.
It is quite possible that the Lions will also underpin this strong home record against the Swiss side. They have only lost two of their last 13 home games internationally. Therefore, if you want to place a bet on the Turkish hosts for Galatasaray vs. Young Boys, you can also use the Betano bonus
Galatasaray lack gunpowder in offense
Compared to last season, however, it is not only the defense that has disappointed so far, but also the Turkish record champions’ offense. Two goals against Young Boys should not be overrated. If “Cimbom” can improve on this, head coach Okan Buruk’s team should not have too much trouble in the second leg.
As in the first leg, betting on “both score” is definitely worthwhile. In the first four competitive matches of the current season, the Lions have already scored twelve times. It is quite possible that the negative trend will continue in the second leg against Young Boys.
Bardakci will miss the upcoming match through suspension. Sánchez, on the other hand, will not be available due to injury. This means that two key players in the Yellow-Red’s back line will be missing.
Predicted Galatasaray line-up:
Muslera – Köhn, Dubois, Nelsson, Jelert – Sara, Torreira – Yilmaz, Mertens, Aktürkoglu
Young Boys – Statistics & current form
Young Boys caused a surprise with their win against Galatasaray last week. After dominating the encounter for long periods in the first half, the Swiss champions from Bern also made a promising start to the second half.
The playful superiority of the Young Boys was also aided by the unexpected goalkeeping errors on the opposing side. They ultimately went into the half-time break with a 2-0 lead. Galatasaray got into the game better in the second half, but Young Boys held their own and kept a clean sheet until the 66th minute.
Only after the substitution of second striker Michy Batshuayi was the opponent’s attacking play spurred on. Nevertheless, Young Boys got off lightly with the 3:2 win and have the best chance of reaching the group stage of the 2024/25 Champions League
Have never lost to a Turkish club
The fact that Young Boys remained unbeaten against a Turkish club for the third time in a row with their 3-2 win over Galatasaray is encouraging. The champions from Bern have won two of these three encounters – including one in Istanbul, mind you.
In the 2010/11 season, Young Boys beat Fenerbahce in the qualifiers for the top flight. After a draw in the first leg, “YB” won the second leg 1:0 away from home to advance to the play-offs of the CL qualifiers, where they were eliminated by Tottenham Hotspur.
After their disastrous start to the Super League season, it remains difficult to say what the Bernese can expect this time. Before the 3-2 win against Galatasaray and the thumping victory in the Cup against Printse-Nendaz, Young Boys had gone five competitive games in a row without a win (0-2-3).
Predicted line-up of Young Boys:
van Ballmoos – Hadjam, Camara, Zoukrou, Blum – Monteiro, Niasse, Lauper, Colley – Ugrinic, Ganvoula
