In the first stage of the new league season 1, CFR Cluj will receive in Gruia Poli Iasi. Hosts of the match come after the failure of Game 1 of the first Preliminary Champions League tour; Tuesday, July 9, 2019, lost to Astana by 1-0. On the other side, Poli Iasi comes after a series of 4 preparation games, managing to win 3 of them and losing one.

CFR CLuj played the 3rd official match this season; the previous two games were in the Super Cup of Romania (lost to Viitorul by 0-1) and in the Champions League (lost in the first hand with 1-0). In 8 of the previous 9 official and friendly matches they have scored below 2.5 goals. It’s unbeaten in the last 14 league games played at home. In each of the last 8 Ligue 1 games played in front of his supporters he has not cashed more than 1 goal. Given that Astana’s return to the Champions League is mid-week ahead, I think some basic players will be hired.

 

Poli Iasi comes after 4 training matches; won with Khabarovsk (0-2), Banants (1-2) and Shkupi (3-1), and lost to Vorskla Poltava (1-0). Flavius Stoican left, and Mihai Teja was installed on the bench. The list of departures is quite long; Mino, Sin, Gardos, Mihaescu, Petre, Nascimento, Cioinac, Sanoh, Qaka, Burlacu, Garros and Enoh left the club.
