Inter Escaldes vs FCSB Prediction & Tips
The first meeting between Inter Escaldes and Steaua in the preliminary round of the Champions League 2025/26 ended in a 3-1 victory for the Romanian side. It was the first official match between the two sides in history; they had never met before, neither in Europe nor in friendlies. Steaua scored twice before half-time, but Inter fought back to pull one back with a goal from Raffina and even scored a second that was disallowed for offside.
Steaua go into the second leg in excellent form: the Romanian side have won eight of their last 10 games, including five away. They have a stable offensive line and a well-organised defence – they have conceded only 9 goals in 10 matches in the national championship. The team plays very confidently on the counter-attack.
