Betting tips – CFR Cluj vs Astra Giurgiu – 16.07.2016
CFR Cluj and Astra Giurgiu will open the official season in Romania, facing each other today from 19:45 in the Romanian Super Cup.
CFR Cluj won the Romanian Cup back in May, coming here after a good display in the friendly matches. More exactly, the former champions ticked a win, 2-0 vs Velenje, and a draw, 0-0 vs Zorya. It’s good to know that CFR are undefeated in the last four meetings with Astra, ticking two draws and two victories since August 2014. Anyway, they are a little underdogs here at the bookmakers.
Astra Giurgiu played three summer friendlies, being undefeated too, with one victory and two draws. The Romanian champions have a stronger squad, but there few missings in their team. First of all, Marius Sumudica (coach) is suspended, while their best players, Denis Alibec (photo) is injured so he won’t feature today in the Super Cup. The last time when Astra won over CFR was more than two years ago, in April 2014, 1-0 in a Liga 1 duel.
CFR Cluj vs Astra Giurgiu prediction: Over 1,5 goals @ 1.40
We expect a spectacular duel in the Romanian Super Cup with CFR Cluj and Astra producing at least two goals in the game, the odds being very interesting at Bet365 right now.
