FCSB (away against West Ham) and CFR Cluj (away against Ballkani) will debut in the Conference League groups on Thursday.
West Ham United v FCSB, a hell of a match for Nicolae Dike’s side
The Romanian vice-champion will take part in a fiery match against West Ham United on Thursday, from 22:00. The match will be broadcast live on Pro TV and in LiveBlog format on HotNews.ro.
6-7 thousand fans of the Bucharest team will be present at the match at the Olympic Stadium in London, Digisport reports.
“First of all, I’m delighted that we’ve made it through the Conference League groups and will be facing a team of West Ham’s caliber. This should be our pride.
It is clear that it will be a very difficult game. We must be ready both to defend and to defend. Especially in defense, we have to make as few mistakes as possible. I believe we will have a good match.
We conceded a lot of goals. Doesn’t suit me either. Last season we conceded 15-17 goals for the entire championship, and now we conceded 12.
You probably expect us to concede a lot of goals, but I believe the boys will put in a good performance.
I am proud to be able to coach in Europe again, it is a joy to be able to coach the team against West Ham in front of 60,000 spectators. What more could a coach want?” – Nicholas Dick.
Probable teams
West Ham: Areola – Johnson, Kerer, Ogbonna, Cresswell – Lanzini, Soucek – Bowen, Fornals, Benrahma – Scamakka
FCSB: Tyrnovanu – Bobok, Dava, Tamm, Radunovichi – Olaru, Ejuma, October. Popescu – Cordea, Compagno, Coman
Ballkani – CFR Cluj: Dan Petrescu believes that the chances of victory are equal
CFR Cluj begins its adventure in the groups of the League of Conferences in Kosovo, on the field of the Balkans.
The match will be broadcast at 19:45 live at Pro Arena, as well as in LiveBlog format on HotNews.ro.
Ahead of the clash in Kosovo, Dan Petrescu claims he has a lot of problems and the chances of winning this match are evenly split.
“Manya is injured, there are problems with Petrila as well. The new acquisitions do not yet know if they are ready for matches of this importance, we have to wait a little bit/
Any team that takes the field wants to win. I don’t think there is a team in the European groups that would not want to win.
You can’t get here if you don’t have value. There are no small or large teams in our group, it is a balanced group.
The fans, the excitement, the way they play makes me think it’s going to be a very tough game. I watched several matches, I liked what I saw. The opponent will give his all, the chances are 50-50″ – Dan Petrescu.
Probable teams
Balkans: Frashery – Ar. Thaqi, Jashanica, Dellova, As. Thaqi – Emerllahu, Kuc – Gripshi, Korenica, Krasniqi – Rrahmani
