Lincoln Red Imps hosts CFR Cluj in the first leg of the Champions League qualification quarterfinals. The match will be played on Tuesday, July 20th at Victoria Stadium (Gibraltar)
Lincoln Red Imps have usually represented Gibraltar in European cups since the moment they became a UEFA member. As a result, this club has steadily started its performances in European competitions since 2014. The first pancake was a blob, as HB Thornshavn eliminated the Reds in the first round (1-1 and 2-5). But then only AEK Larnaca was the first opponent that eliminated Lincoln immediately. In all other qualifying cycles, the club from Gibraltar knocked out the first opponent. At home, Fola Esch was still able to win back a 0-2 score. But in Gibraltar, the Red Imps hammered the guests from Luxembourg (5-0), and De Barr (field goals) and Walker (from the spot) scored a double each.

CFR Cluj is already accustomed to being perceived as the main force in Romanian club football. And since the time of Dan Petrescu, the Railwaymen have achieved quite good results in the European cups. They advanced to the group round and even to the spring playoffs. Of course, now the Romanians are determined to achieve success and get into the main draw of the Champions League. They have not played there since 2012. It seems that Borac should not have become a serious problem. The champion of Bosnia lost 3-1 in Cluj. This result seems to have relaxed the Romanians themselves. They were lucky that the away goal rule was canceled, as they would not have continued the fight. Borac won 2-0 in their native Banja Luka, scoring twice after the break. But according to the new rules, the determination of the winner passed to extra time, and Chipciu scored the decisive goal in the 118th minute.
Lincoln Red Imps has shown that it can score a lot in the European cups. But CFR Cluj should also take into account the lesson learned in the last round. We bet on neutral Over 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
