The UEFA Champions League returns to the fold this week as Young Boys lock horns with CFR Cluj on Wednesday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to be at their best this week.

Young Boys have plenty of experience on the European stage and will be intent on securing qualification to the Champions League this year. The Swiss outfit edged Basel to a Swiss Super League victory last season and are in good form going into this game.

CFR Cluj have been impressive so far this year but will have to be wary against a strong side. The Romanians are a dominant force in the league but have a few hurdles ahead of them this month.


CFR Cluj vs Young Boys Head-to-Head

Young Boys have a good record against CFR Cluj and have won one out of three games played between the two teams. CFR Cluj have never defeated Young Boys in an official game and will need to step up on Wednesday.

The previous meeting between the two teams took place last year and ended in a 2-1 victory for Young Boys. CFR Cluj gave a good account of themselves on the day but will need to take it up a notch this week.
