Betting tips for FCSB vs Plzen - 25.07.2017

The dream of a full participation in the Steaua Bucharest and Viktoria Plzen Millionaires League kicks off this Tuesday in Romania. Last season both teams had a similar course in European competitions. They resisted until the play-off and eventually ended up falling into the Europa League. The Romanian championship has already started and Steaua will try to use that pace to travel to the Czech Republic with advantage.

Last season Steaua Bucharest could complain about their luck. Having made it to the play-off, and to be able to integrate the groups of the Champions League, it left to him the way the Manchester City. The sum of both hands (6-0) gives a good idea of ​​the massacre that followed. It would end up thus fulfilling the campaign in the group phase of the Europa League, finishing in the last position of the grouping where they also scored the Osmanlinspor, Villarreal and FC Zurich. The last participation of the Romanian team in the regular phase of Champions has been four seasons.

Steaua gained entry to the third qualifying round of the Millionaire League with second place in the Liga of Romania, ranking for the second consecutive year. The season 2017/18 of the Romanian championship has already started and the formation of Bucharest is the only one that fulfilled the first two days without giving points. He defeated Voluntari (2-1) and ACS Poli Timisoara (0-1).

For this European tie the goals were very clearly defined by the coach, Nicolae Dica. It is essential to win the home game. If possible, scoring without suffering, to be able to face the second game in the Czech Republic with a trump card up its sleeve.



Champions LeagueOn the role, Viktoria Plzen had a similar course in European competitions last season. He also dropped in the play-off and made the rest of the season in the Europa League. But in practice, the Czech club missed the opportunity to have picked up the Ludogorets Razgrad (2-0, 2-2) on the undercard of the Champions League. A worthy opponent, I do not question him, but clearly the most accessible that were in evidence at that time. In the group stage, the performance was positive. It was third in Group E, one point above Austria in Vienna, behind Roma and Astra Giurgiu.

Still preparing for the official season, Plzen only played friendly matches so far. After games with home opponents of secondary grades, the formation led by Pavel Vrba faced and was defeated by the Englishmen Wolverhampton (2-1) and Watford (0-1).

In the 2016/17 season, Viktoria Plzen was twice champion of the Czech League, seven points ahead of Sparta in Prague.

The team has a number of injured players or recovering from physical problems. The problem particularly affects the defensive sector. Captain Roman Hubnik and Marian Cisovsky, both midfielders, right-back Ales Mateju and left-back David Limbersky are out of action. Milan Pavel, one of the reinforcements this summer, coming from FC Bohemians Prague, will have to take on the left side of the defense, due to the lack of healthy alternatives. The squad also received two new additions to the midfield sector this time around. Ales Cernak arrives from rival Sparta of Prague for a million euros; Diego Zivulic arrives at zero cost of Zlin.
