FCSB are surely the best Romanian team in history, with one European Champions Club's Cup trophy and 27 national league titles, but their last appearance in the elite European competition was ten years ago. FCSB have already played five matches in the new season and remained undefeated in all of them. However, Ilias Charalambous' team can't be satisfied with the performances in the Romanian championship, as FCSB started the season with only two points from two matches. In the previous game, they played 2-2 on the road against Unirea Slobozia. FCSB were close to all three points in that match, but the home team scored an equalizer late in the second half, so the teams split the points.
After a dominant last season, Maccabi Tel Aviv hopes to continue their good performances and qualify for the Champions League for the first time since the 2015/16 season. Maccabi Tel Aviv had only one official game this season - a Super Cup tie against Maccabi Petah Tikva, in which Zarko Lazetic's team won 2-0. That win was far from easy, but Maccabi Tel Aviv eventually secured a win that will give them much confidence for the rest of the season.
FCSB vs Maccabi Tel Aviv pick: Both teams to score - yes
Both these teams are scoring goals with ease, so we should expect both to score on Monday at Arena Nationala in Bucharest.
FCSB team news
Florinel Coman, FCSB's best player from the last season with 16 goals and ten assists in the national league, left the team this summer and signed for Qatari Al-Gharafa. His replacement in the squad should be Marius Stefanescu, who came from Sepsi. FCSB are very active at the transfer window this summer, so they also signed Kiki (who came from Farul Constanta), William Baeten (U. Craiova), and Daniel Popa (U. Cluj).
