The first leg is CFR Cluj or the draw against FC Universitatea Cluj. The home-and-away split is clear: CFR are W4 D1 L1 in their last 6 home games, while Universitatea have won only once in their last 6 away games and conceded 10 goals. The market gives this outcome 66.9%, close to the short-priced home band that has held up well in our archive, and we rate it a little higher.

The main risk with that leg is the season data. Universitatea's xG for is 17.4 against 11.9 conceded, a better underlying profile than CFR's 12.8 for and 13.2 against. Their recent results also include two wins, so they can win this. That is why we take the double chance rather than a CFR win.

The second leg is under 2.5 goals in Kuopion Palloseura v AC Oulu. Both sides' recent games have been low-scoring. KuPS scored 6 and conceded 6 in their last six, with 1.11 xG per match. Oulu scored 4 and conceded 7, and average 8.5 shots. A price close to an even split between under and over looks a little generous.

The risk on the under is the head-to-head record. The last 17 meetings averaged 3.12 goals, and they include a 3-2 and a 2-2 among the most recent four. Oulu have also conceded 10 in their last 6 away games, so if KuPS score early the game could open up.

For the slip to land, CFR need to avoid defeat at home, and KuPS v Oulu needs to end with two goals or fewer. Combined median odds are about 2.59, inside the preferred band.
