Young Boys vs Inter Milan prediction: In-form Inter to triumph
Key Stats
- Inter Milan have won each of their last four matches in all competitions.
- Young Boys lost each of their first two Champions League matches to nil (vs Aston Villa & Barcelona).
- Lautaro Martinez scored four times in his last four appearances for Inter Milan.
- Young Boys conceded eight goals across their first two UCL group fixtures.
Correct score prediction: Young Boys 0-3 Inter Milan
Young Boys have looked ill-equipped to compete in this season’s Champions League as evidenced by heavy defeats to Aston Villa (0-3) and Barcelona (0-5) in their first two outings in the competition. Another convincing loss to nil could be in the works when they host Inter.
Pre-game odds and win probability: Hosts are clear underdogs
- HOME: 13/2 (7.50) – 13.3%
- DRAW: 15/4 (4.75) – 21.1%
- AWAY: 19/50 (1.38) – 72.5%
*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Young Boys were well-beaten by both Aston Villa and Barcelona on matchdays one and two in the Champions League and the Swiss minnows have just a 13.3% chance of putting their first points on the board when they host Inter.
Italian champions Inter made it four wins from four in all competitions when they won 1-0 at Roma at the weekend and the Nerazzurri, who are odds-on favourites at 19/50 to win again in Bern, should be tough to stop on Wednesday. View more of our free football tips on our dedicated page.

Inter Milan preview: Calhanoglu and Acerbi missing
Inter Milan will be without the services of Francesco Acerbi, Hakan Calhanoglu, Kristjan Asllani, Piotr Zielinski and Tajon Buchanan this week. Inters 1-0 win at Roma at the weekend felt like a significant result for Simone Inzaghi's side.

Player to watch – Yann Sommer
Swiss keeper Yann Sommer returns to his homeland in Inter’s colours this week and the 35-year-old will be determined to shine on his outing in Switzerland against Young Boys.
Sommer targeting clean sheet
Sommer had a lot of work to get through in Inter’s last Champions League away game at Man City (0-0) last month, though the veteran will hope to have an easier time of it in what looks like a less challenging tie with struggling Young Boys on Wednesday.
