Targu Mures v Saint Etienne
Thursday 19:00
A single goal for Celtic in Scotland last night. Enough for them, and not enough to ruin our night. Everyone goes home happy except the visitors, who have only the consolation of a journey home across four timezones.
Our own European odyssey continues in Romania, where Targu Mures are about the play their first ever Europa League match.
All we can really go on is their recent record in domestic competition. Their first two Liga home games of the new season have brought just a single goal between. Last term, 10/17 league matches at Trans-Sil Stadium finished with Under 2.5 Goals as the host kept an impressive 11 clean sheets and only conceded more than once in their final outing of the season.
At the other end of the pitch, Saint Etienne this (not so high) level of European competition. Since late August 2013, the French fancies have kept nine consecutive Europa League games to Under 2.5 Goals.
Their debutant hosts are unlikely to make them push the boat out this evening.
