LiontipsCFR Cluj vs Maccabi Petah Tikva. Prediction and bets on the Conference League match
Command Analysis
Current form
If the national championship of CFR is in turmoil, then in the European Cup battles everything is in order. In the quarterfinals of the qualification, the Romanians defeated the Belarusian "Neman" in a two-match confrontation (0:0 and 5:0). In the first match of the semifinals, they won away from home against their upcoming opponent (1:0). To get to the next round, Dan Petrescu's charges just need not to lose. Considering the form they have managed to get now, this is quite possible.
The team is well-coordinated. The core of the team from last season remained in the lineup, so there can be no talk of any lack of coordination. The unsuccessful start at the beginning of the season can be attributed to the fact that the players were just recovering from the summer vacation.
Injuries and disqualifications
All players are in the general group and are ready to take to the field if necessary.

In two of the last three matches on their home field, CFR conceded
Estimated composition
Sava - Mogosh, Boben, Kresic, Kamora - Takhtsidis, Arten, Mukhar - Dyak, Berlidzha, Korenica
Current form
From the very start of the season, Maccabi Petah Tikva fell into a deep hole. The visitors lost five games in a row with a total score of 1:11. It all started with a friendly game with CSKA Sofia (1:2), then there was a defeat in the Super Cup against Maccabi Tel Aviv (0:2). Then in the Europa League qualification, Portuguese Braga crushed them 0:7 on aggregate.
In the first game against CFR, the Israelis had more possession of the ball, but this did not help them to even draw (0:1). To advance further, they need to do something impossible, because the opponent is currently on a good run, and Maccabi has not even been able to score in the last four games.
Injuries and disqualifications
There are no injured players on the team, so the coaching staff is free to put whoever they want on the field.
Interesting trends for betting
Maccabi has conceded more than once in four of its last five matches.
For four games in a row, Maccabi has failed to even score
Estimated composition

1.92Tip and bets
As much as we would like to believe in a fairy tale, Maccabi Petah Tikva is not in the form to compete away from home and win back a one-goal handicap against an opponent like CFR. We are inclined to believe that the hosts will play even better in front of local fans and will win a more confident victory.
Our betting tip is Asian handicap (-1) on CFR with odds of 1.70
Bet on total
Maccabi is still entertaining hopes of a rematch in Romania, but CFR plays very well on its home field and is capable of putting up a “wall” that the Israelis will not be able to break through.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with a coefficient of 1.73
Bet on corners
CFR will not play open football. Having scored one or two goals, the team will keep the ball in the center of the field and will not allow many dangerous scoring chances to be created. The Romanians are not famous for their flank attacks, so we will bet that there will not be many corners in this match.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners with odds of 1.70
