FCSB vs Feyenoord prediction: EUROPE: Europa League – League phase betting tips on match 2025-12-10 20:00.
[p]Both sat outside of the qualification spots in this seasonâs UEFA Europa League (UEL) league phase, FCSB and Feyenoord will battle it out for a vital three points in Romania. [/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]After winning their opening UEL match this season, FCSB have lost four league phase games in a row to seriously harm their progression hopes. A 1-0 defeat against ten-man Red Star last time out in this competition highlighted their recent plight, forming part of a return of just one win in seven across all competitions (D3, L3), with the Romanians failing to score in three of their last four. Theyâll have to end their scoring woes here if theyâre to avoid losing five main-draw European matches in a row for the first time since November 2007, and some respectable recent home form (W4, D2, L2) would suggest this is the perfect place to avoid such a feat until you realise both defeats came in the UEL. Â [/p]
[p]Like their hosts, Feyenoord have also picked up just three points across their opening five UEL league phase fixtures this term (W1, L4). A 3-1 home loss to Celtic in their last competition outing meant that theyâve netted just four goals in total so far, though a 6-1 domestic victory against Zwolle at the weekend will have boosted morale where a lack of goals is concerned. Back-to-back victories since that Celtic reversal hint that that result couldâve been a turning point for them, but their credentials will be greatly tested on the road in Europe, where theyâre winless in seven such matches (D2, L5).[/p]
