Neman vs CFR Prediction and Betting Tips | August 1, 2024

Neman entertain CFR Cluj at the Alcufer Stadion in the UEFA Conference League second qualifying round second leg on Thursday (August 1). The tie is finely poised following a goalless first-leg draw.

The hosts returned from Cluj-Napoca with a goalless draw, which could be described as a good result for the visitors. It was a high voltage clash, with both teams finishing with almost an equal percentage of ball possession. Neman will look to exploit their home advantage, thanks to their impressive record at Alcufer Stadion.

The Grodno-based team are third in the Belarusian Premier League with 33 points – two behind the top spot – after 15 games - winning 11 and losing four. In the previous edition of the Conference League, Neman reached the third qualifying round before falling to Slovenian side Celje 5-1.

CFR, meanwhile, missed several chances but also defended well to avoid a home defeat. They are expected to replicate a similar performance in the second leg. CFR are not in great shape, as they are winless in three matches across competitions.

Ceferiștii are yet to recover from the home stalemate with Neman. They lost at the venue 2-0 against Universitatea Craiova in the Romanian Liga 1 on Sunday. CFR are eighth with one point after three games and are winless in three away matches across competitions.
