CFR Cluj and Tromsø meet in the UEFA Europa Conference League third qualifying round. CheckLive see no clear favourite here, so this looks a genuinely close contest. Both sides will be eager to seize control before the return leg.
Cluj have been up and down lately: they beat Alashkert 3-0 and Voluntari 5-0, but also drew 1-1 with Alashkert and lost 2-1 to Oțelul Galați. Tromsø thrashed Aalesund 6-2 and HamKam 4-1, yet lost twice to Hradec Králové in Europa League qualifying, including a 3-1 away defeat.
These two clubs have never met, so there is no head-to-head form to guide us. With no favourite and both teams showing attacking threat, a draw is a very realistic outcome; the key is which defence holds up when pressed.
