CFR Cluj vs Celtic Glasgow Picks

For CFR everything is clear, to qualify in the sixteenth Europa League, it needs a victory or a draw in Gruia with the Scottish champion. “White-throats” can arrive in the European spring even in the event of a defeat, provided Lazio does not win in Rennes. Should CFR lose and Lazio win, both teams would have 9p, but the Italians have the advantage of direct matches, 1-2 in Cluj and 1-0 in Rome. Celtic Glasgow is qualified in the sixteenth, so the match in Cluj has no stake. However, the “white-greens” did not forget that CFR removed them from the Champions League and they will certainly do everything they can to confuse the “railroads”. They have 12 consecutive victories in 3 competitions (championship, League Cup of Scotland and Europa League) and being in maximum form, they will try to win for the first time in the European cups in Romania.
