The Champions League group stage kicks off on Tuesday as Young Boys hosts RB Leipzig at Stadion Wankdorf for their Group G match. Young Boys secured their place in the competition by defeating Maccabi Haifa 3-0 on aggregate during the playoff round. Meanwhile, RB Leipzig earned their spot in this year’s Champions League by finishing third in the Bundesliga in the previous season.

Young Boys are returning to Europe’s top club competition after missing out last season, and their first challenge is to try and upset the more highly regarded Bundesliga team. Their home advantage played a significant role in their journey to this season’s group stage, as they defeated Maccabi Haifa 3-0 in Bern after a goalless draw in Israel. Facing Leipzig presents a tougher challenge, so Wicky’s team needs to raise their performance level for a strong start in the group. They enter Tuesday’s match in good form, with Young Boys unbeaten in all competitions this season, winning six of their nine matches. Their recent run of five consecutive clean sheets in all competitions demonstrates defensive strength, with a 1-0 cup victory against Xamax on Friday being their latest shutout.

Leipzig is eager to kick off their European campaign on a positive note, following a reasonably favorable draw for the Bundesliga team. Marco Rose’s squad has responded impressivel securing three consecutive domestic wins while scoring 11 goals and conceding just one. Summer signings Xavi Simons and Lois Openda have each scored three goals in the first four league games, with Simons also providing four assists to his teammates. While Leipzig faced a tough defeat to Manchester City last season, the overall progress of their new arrivals settling in should please Rose. Despite losing key players like Nkunku to Chelsea, Szoboszlai to Liverpool, and Gvardiol to Manchester City, Leipzig’s recruitment suggests they can navigate the group stage successfully if they maintain their current form.
