This is a team little affected by the home factor, that is, they have similar results at home and away, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 40 goals scored and 15 conceded, against 12 wins and 3 draws at home, with 34 goals scored and 6 conceded.

In the last 6 home matches for all competitions there are 1 periods that stand out: they have scored 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (31’‑45′).
Estrela Vermelha comes unmotivated for this match after an away defeat, by 1-0, against Sheriff, counting for the Champions League. The home team’s greatest quality lies in the ability it demonstrates in conducting its offensive attacks through quick transitions. The Serbian club usually plays in a 4-3-3 tactical system, where the three most advanced players are Aleksandar Katai, Lois Diony and Slavoljub Srnic. Italian Filippo Falco is the player responsible for guiding his team’s offensive game in the best possible way. The home coach should not have any weightlessness for this first match in the Europa League play-offs.
CFR Analysis
The visiting team makes its debut in this edition of the Europa League with the intention of achieving a positive result and surprising the home team. This is a team that usually gets better results away than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses in away matches, with a total of 20 goals scored and 12 conceded.

In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times but managed to turn the score around in 2.
Cluj comes motivated for this match after a 1-0 home victory against Farul, counting for the Romanian first league: Debeljuh, in the 36th minute, was the hero of his team by scoring the only goal of triumph. The visiting team has a habit of playing in a tactical design in 4-3-3, where the most central line on the field is formed by Rúnar Már Sigurjónsson, Guessouma Fofana and Mateo Susic. On the defensive side, the team led by Marius Sumudica can count on Mário Camora, with the Portuguese being the owner of the furthest line. The visiting coach must have all players available.
