Young Boys are a very different team to their hosts, Gerardo Seoane returned to the club in November 2025 and immediately implemented his high pressing, all-action style. The visitors play with a high tempo and are narrow in attack, looking to force opponents into errors and then overload wide areas. Chris Bedia is their main target man with 10 goals in 14 Super League appearances, making him the division's standout marksman.
