NextGOAL tip: Petrolul 52 (level) · 2 stars
Petrolul 52 and CFR Cluj meet in the league with the two sides in clearly different form. Last time out, Petrolul 52 thrashed their opponents 6-0 at home in the cup, while CFR Cluj have just lost 1-3 in the cup and also lost their previous league game by the same score. Petrolul 52 have won two in a row and are unbeaten in 3, scoring consistently in the league lately and starting to look solid at the back. CFR Cluj, meanwhile, are without a win in 3 in a row; they still carry a goal threat but concede a fair amount, especially between the 61st and 75th minutes, which accounts for 21% of all the goals they have conceded. This game is likely to see Petrolul 52 take the initiative at home more, while CFR Cluj will probably sit back and wait for counter-attacking chances. If the hosts can dominate possession and avoid conceding early, the pattern of the game should tilt increasingly in their favour.
