Sports Mole casts an eye over Braga's Champions League clash with Romanian side CFR Cluj.

Romanian side CFR Cluj have only managed one away win in the Champions League group stages from nine attempts.

That success came in 2008 against Italian side Roma. Next up is a trip to Braga, who qualified for this stage thanks to a victory on penalties over Udinese.

The home side have an almost fully fit squad to select from for this encounter, with very few changes expected from the side that advanced through at the expense of Udinese.

That means that former Newcastle United attacker Hugo Viana should start, as will Portugal international Custodio.

In contrast, Cluj coach Ioan Andone has a number of absentees to contend with. Ciprian Deac, Adam Vass, Bakary Sare and Vasile Maftei are all injured and Ronny is suspended.

Tomorrow's match will mark the first time that Braga have faced a club from Romania.

Recent form:

Braga: Beto; Douglao, Ismaily, Vinicius; Salino, Custodio, Viana, Mossoro, Eder, Alan; Barbosa

Cluj: Mario Felgueiras; Pinto, Cadu, Rada, Camora; Bastos, Godemecha, Muresan, Rui Pedro; Kapetanos; Sougou

Sports Mole says: 2-1
