Young Boys vs Panathinaikos Prediction: match preview, predicted lineups, tips & odds on September 25, 2025
In the 1st round of the main stage of the Europa League on September 25, 2025, a match between Young Boys and Panathinaikos will take place. The fans in Bern are expecting their favorites to win.
Our Prediction for the Young Boys vs Panathinaikos Match
The Swiss side were champions of their country six times between 2018 and 2024. However, last season they experienced an inexplicable slump, and after several coaching changes, the club managed to finish at least in third place. This season also started with just one win from the first four rounds, but their statistics have improved significantly since. Therefore, the defeat to Aarau in the cup looks like a clear setback.
The Greeks have long been unable to win the national championship. Since 2010, their best result has been second place, as in the last season. Currently, they had only a draw with Levadiakos and a loss to Kifisia, after which Rui Vitória was dismissed. Without him, they scraped a 1-0 win over Kallithea in the cup. Over the weekend, they played a crucial derby against Olympiacos, which ended in a draw.
Contini's team advanced through the Europa League qualification by defeating Slovan Bratislava. They won 1-0 away and 2-1 at home. The visitors from Athens overcame Samsunspor in August: after a 2-1 home win, they held a goalless draw in Turkey.
