CFR Cluj vs Braga Prediction & Betting tips
On Thursday evening at 19:30, in the 3rd preliminary round of the Europa League, CFR Cluj will play at home against Braga. The two teams have faced each other twice before, 13 years ago in the UEFA Champions League groups, and then CFR Cluj managed a superb double victory, 2-0 in the away leg and 3-1 in the return leg at home. The winning team will play in the next round with the winner of Lincoln Red Imps and Noah, while the loser will play in the Conference League.
CFR Cluj:
CFR Cluj has already gone through two preliminary rounds and if in the first round it was the favorite in the double with Paks, managing a draw, score 0-0 in the first round and a clear victory with 3-0 in the return leg at home, in the second round it started with a second chance in the double with Lugano from Switzerland. Despite all this, after two goalless draws, CFR Cluj managed to qualify at home after extra time. Before this match, CFR Cluj lost the championship match at home with Universitatea Craiova, score 2-3.
Braga:
On the other hand, Braga is clearly the favorite team in this double leg, both in terms of the squad and the individual value of the players, as well as the very large budget. Braga’s only official matches were those in the 2nd preliminary round with Levski Sofia, where, like tonight’s opponent, CFR Cluj, they recorded two goalless draws, and in the return leg at home they qualified thanks to the goal scored in extra time. After this match, Braga will also debut in the championship in the new season in Portugal, at home against Tondela.
