It is Universitatea Craiova’s turn to host Finnish side KuPS as the two sides seek a place in the Europa League playoffs. In the first leg played in Finland, KuPS had to come from behind to settle the match at 1-1. KuPS have a poor run on the road in Europe, which leaves Universitatea Craiova as the favorites in our prediction.

Craiova were just 18 minutes away from an important away win following Stefan Baiaram’s first-half opener. Fortunately, they have another chance, this time at home.

Still, there’s a need for improvement, having only managed a win in their last six matches. At home, though, they’ve won three times in their last five outings and come here having only lost once in the last four continental games they hosted.

KuPS will also be eyeing an improvement on their recent form. They need a win by any margin here but could be hindered by the fact that they’ve won just once in their last four matches.

After drawing in the first leg, they registered a similar result against TPS in their domestic league. The positive they carry into this game is being unbeaten in their last three matches.

However, each of their three defeats in the last eight matches was in Europe. Their general performance in continental action hasn’t been great, KuPS managing just one win in the last 10 games.

Our CS Universitatea Craiova vs KuPS Prediction

KuPS did well to come from a goal down at home in the first leg to stay in this competition. The task ahead, however, is expected to be tougher here. The visitors are coming here on a poor run of results in Europe, having managed just one win across the last 10 games.

It isn’t any better away in Europe, where they’ve lost four of the last seven and managed just one win in the process. On the other hand, Craiova won twice and drew another in their last four home games in Europe. Our prediction for Universitatea Craiova v KuPS is that Universitatea Craiova wins.
