Today is another European CSKA night. After 3 losses and 1 draw in the first 4 games of the Europa League group stage, the “Army” cannot continue in direct eliminations. Even an experienced mathematician can do the math. But the game against the Romanians is not insignificant. Exactly the opposite. Not only because a club in the CSKA category cannot afford to play without a goal to win. Even more so in Europe. Where exactly CSKA was built as the Bulgarian fighter over the years.
We have repeated it many times: if the “reds” reach three points tonight, the update in groups will be a fact. So far, CSKA has recorded three such appearances. Twice he achieved a victory and earned 3 points. In the third case, the “Army” had to settle for a point won by a 1: 1 draw with Fulham at “Vasil Levski” stadium. Now CSKA has a point from the match with Roma at the Olimpico. Prestige point won after a good and masculine game. Against one of the leading teams of the Old Continent. Never before has the 31-time champion of Bulgaria accumulated 4 points in groups. Time to do it! And given the situation, the rematch with Roma in Sofia will be the icing on the cake, a football vacation.

Besides the prestige, CSKA also plays for a lot of money. And this is not insignificant. The football club is difficult to survive. Especially in these times of pandemic and crisis, especially in Bulgaria. A raffle will fill the coffers of the “Army” with 190,000 euros. Victory: 570,000. More than a million leva! That is the price of success tonight. Players should be aware of this. Use your head and feet to give the best of yourself. Just like they did against Basel in Switzerland to gain a foothold in the groups. Yes, it is time to see this spirit and game of CSKA, which we saw in every minute until the end of the match after Basel’s goal by 1: 0.
Cluj is not afraid. They won in Sofia 2: 0 with a shot from a corner and a penalty goal. It is clear to everyone that the opponent’s strength is in static positions. Hopefully the “army” has learned the necessary lessons and is much more careful in such situations today. Cluj has been seriously affected after parting ways with coach Dan Petrescu. Romanian players are nothing more than Bruno Akrapovic’s. Namely, the Bosnian is the great hope for the success of the Bulgarian team. As the legend Asparuh Nikodimov noted in an interview with TOPSPORT, Akrapovich’s work and methods are beginning to pay off at CSKA. Bruno recorded two victories on the domestic stage, with a goal difference of 7: 0 in favor of his team. But in Europe it is different. This is the stage when CSKA must write history. Today, the success would also be for history, because the Reds still do not have a victory in Romania.

For me CSKA is a slight favorite in the match against Cluj. It has everything it takes to delight its fans with a new memorable European evening. Like those of BATE, Basel and Rome this season. You can only win in those matches. Points, prestige and serious funds for your club. We believe that CSKA will be strong, with a military spirit, will and great concentration.
