Young Boys vs. Inter, the complete guide | OneFootball

It will be another great night. Inter are preparing to play their third match of the 2024/25 Champions League. After their home victory of 4-0 against Crvena Zvezda, Simone Inzaghi's team will return to the field on 23 Wednesday, October, at 21:00 CEST, when they face Young Boys at the Wankdorf Stadium in Bern.

FIRST TIME

This will be the first-ever European meeting between Young Boys and Inter. The Nerazzurri have not faced a Swiss team in a major European competition since September 1997, when they defeated Neuchâtel Xamax 2-0, with goals from Francesco Moriero and Maurizio Ganz.

NERAZZURRI WALL

Since their first season in the UEFA Champions League under Simone Inzaghi in 2021/22, the Nerazzurri have kept the most clean sheets of any team, with a total of 17, including four in the last five matches.

LAUTARO CHASING ADRIANO

After reaching a total of 133 goals, Lautaro has the chance to set another record. With his goal against Crvena Zvezda, Lautaro Martínez has now scored 13 goals in the UEFA Champions League while wearing the Inter shirt. His next goal will see him equal Adriano as the player with the most goals in the competition for the Nerazzurri.

THE DRIVE OF MEHDI

His arrival in Simone Inzaghi's squad has been very positive from the start. Mehdi Taremi is undoubtedly one of the key assets for the Nerazzurri. In the first two matchdays of this Champions League, the Iranian forward has been the player who has applied the most high-intensity pressure (160). In fact, both of Inter's goals from open play against Crvena Zvezda, in the last match came after an offensive recovery, with Taremi winning the ball back on both occasions.

THE OPPONENT: YOUNG BOYS

Young Boys are making their ninth appearance in the Champions League in their history: five in the European Cup, where they reached the semi-finals in 1958/59, only to be defeated by Reims, who would later lose to the great Real Madrid of Di Stéfano. They have won the last six consecutive championships, but their season has not started positively. The Swiss side currently sit at the bottom of the Champions League group and tenth out of twelve in the league. They are currently managed by interim coach Joël Magnin, who took over from Patrick Rahmen in early October. The most dangerous players for the Gialloneri are Itten, with 42 goals in 94 matches for Young Boys since 2022, Ganvoula, the current top scorer for the team with 4 goals in the league, and Joel Monteiro, also with 4 goals, which earned him his first two caps for the Swiss national team.

His assistants will be Burt and Mainwaring, while Madley will serve as the fourth official on the sidelines. The VAR will be overseen by Attwell, with Bankes as the AVAR.
