Preview
Young Boys eye a winning return after their 1-0 defeat to Atalanta away in their previous UCL clash.
Pessina’s strike proved the difference maker as Young Boys lost their first match of the campaign.
This has been their only loss in the last 5 matches across competitions.
Hence, the Swiss side would be keen to get the right result and move to the top of the table.
On the other hand, Villarreal were beaten by Manchester United 2-1 in their last UCL clash and eye a winning return.
The Spanish side has only picked up 1 point from 2 matches in Group F. Emery’s side is under pressure to deliver if they seek progress to the next round.
The Yellow Submarine have been inconsistent in terms of results and hope to get their first win of the campaign here.

Rulli, Pedraza, Torres, Albiol, Foyth, Trigueros, Parejo, Capoue, Danjuma, Moreno and Pino
Prediction: Young Boys 2-1 Villarreal
Young Boys have played well at home and would be confident ahead of this clash.
The Europa League winners in Villarreal have been disappointing in recent weeks and due to inconsistency, lack the winning mentality.
Even though Villarreal look better on paper, we expect the Swiss side to nick this contest due to their better form.
Players to watch out for: Ngamaleu, Elia, Moreno and Danjuma.
