Slavia Prague will play their third match of the Conference Europa League, at home to Cluj from Romania, who have only one point in the table so far. What did coach Dušan Uhrin Jr., who knows the environment of both teams, say before the match?
Dušan Uhrin Jr. has coached both Slavia and Cluj in the past. Moreover, he has coached several teams in Romania, so he knows the environment like the back of his hand.
Now, his former teams will face each other, but Slavia will be the favourite in Eden, and they will not want to allow any surprises and the goal will be to get three points and improve their coefficient.
What kind of team does the coach think Cluj is? “It is like Slavia in the Czech Republic. Cluj has everything it needs for football. It has the highest budget, only FCSB is similar.
They have excellent facilities, they have built new training areas. They have so many players that they have to train on two pitches,” he said in an interview with Sport.
Who does he favour in the match? As expected, Slavia. “I think they play better football. But they have to be careful, Cluj is on the rise, they don’t score many goals. They will be well prepared for Slavia.
I think they will play from behind, I don’t think they will press. And she has very good offensive standard situations, she scored a lot of goals from them last season,” the coach added.
The match between Slavia and Cluj is scheduled for today from 21:00. If you don’t make it to the stadium, you will be able to watch it via Czech TV on CT Sport.
