Following their first-round bye in the Europa League, Lugano will start their campaign in the second qualifying round, hosting CFR Cluj. This first leg encounter will be staged at the Stockholm Arena, and below we have a prediction for the match.
Lugano gained their place here courtesy of a fourth-place finish in their league last season. That might have looked like a decent position, but Lugano were in title contention for a better portion of the campaign and post-season.
In 2019/20, Lugano featured in the Europa League group stage, and they’ll be seeking a return. First, they have to improve on a run of just one win in the last six matches in Europe.
Cluj missed a spot in the Conference League main draw last season after falling to Pafos in the play-off round. They will be aiming higher this time. The visitors are fresh from a 3-0 aggregate win against Paks in the first qualifying round.
The two legs in that tie form part of their four-match unbeaten run coming into this encounter. There’s, however, still room for improvement, with Cluj having conceded in three of their last five matches.
Away from home, Cluj are generally weak, and that forms the other part of their worries. In the last 15 competitive away matches, they won twice.

Our FC Lugano vs CFR Cluj Prediction
Cluj have managed just two wins in their last 15 away matches, and this could spell trouble on their trip to Switzerland. They will, however, see positives in the fact that Lugano didn’t finish their season strongly. The visitors rarely keep clean sheets but are also consistent in attack.
Lugano struggled defensively in their competitive matches towards the end of last season. The same was also witnessed in their matches in Europe. With that, our prediction for Lugano v CFR Cluj is for both teams to score.
