CFR Cluj’s stay in the Europa League is in jeopardy after their 4-0 loss away to Red Star Belgrade in the first leg of their play-off. The two face off in the return leg with hosts Cluj expected to turn things around and they warmed up for it with a 1-0 win over Arges. In their last five matches, Cluj have managed three wins and three clean sheets in their last five matches. They have failed to score in two of the last five matches and while they need to overturn a 4-0 score line, they’ve failed to score more than a goal in the last five. Cluj have conceded three or more goals in two of their last five matches. At home, they are unbeaten in the last five matches, with three clean sheets and have scored in all five. Their last four home matches have produced under 2.5 goals.

Red Star Belgrade have turned on the style after their elimination from the Champions League by minnows Sheriff. They’ve since registered two straight wins and heading here with a 4-0 lead gives them an edge. Right after the loss to Sheriff, Red Star thumped Backa Topola 3-1 and they go here with three wins in five games. They have two clean sheets in five matches and failed to score in just one. They have two losses in their last three away matches and haven’t managed to keep a clean sheet. Both teams have managed to score in three of Red Star Belgrade’s last four away matches.
