Young Boys – the shape of the team and its analysis:
The "Bees" confidently secured the championship in the spring, their second in a row and sixth in the last seven seasons. Naturally, they intend to remain leaders in Bern. However, there are many new elements in the project.
The "Yellow-Blacks" enter the new season under the leadership of Patrick Rahmen. He once played a bit here as a footballer and moved from Yverdon, which he led last season. There are also some intriguing new players, such as Fasino Conte and Bani-Zukru. However, they struggled in their friendly matches.
Sion – the shape of the team and its analysis:
The "Red and Whites" managed to return to the Super League after the shortest possible stint in the second division of Switzerland. They won first place in the Challenge League, enduring a tough race with Thun but ultimately securing three more points. This was a great achievement for Didier Tholot, who took over as coach a year ago.
The team is trying to strengthen its squad within its means. For instance, they brought in Jokic, who shone in Vaduz, though Vaduz is not the strongest representative of the second division. Nevertheless, the team looked decent in their friendly matches.
