ITV: CFR Cluj-Napoca v Sparta Prague

Sparta Prague coach Jozef Chovanec has told his players they must learn to play as well on the road as they do at home. Sparta travel to Cluj with four points from their three Europa League Group K games – including a 2-0 win over the Romanian side last time out.But they have a history of struggling on their travels in Europe and they have lost two of their last three continental away games. „Players must be able to do what we do at home with the support of fans and support that we have,” said Chovanec. „We must be able to produce optimum performances even at our opponents’ grounds. „This is the main cause of some not-so-good results away from home – we’re a little unadventurous and not confident.” The other match in the group sees PSV Eindhoven, who lead the section, travel to FC Copenhagen. The Dutch side are three points clear, but only a single point separates the other three sides as they seemingly scrap it out for second place. With things so close, Chovanec will be looking for every advantage he can find.
