Former International Basarab Panduru (55 years old) said which team is a favorite in qualifying in Conference League between Craiova University and Istanbul Basakșehir.
The return from “Oblemenco” will be played on Thursday, August 28, from 20:30. In the tour, the Oltenians prevailed in Istanbul with a score of 2-1, through the goals signed by Cicâldău and Mora.
Even though Mirel Rădoi's team has secured a goal advantage in the tour match, Panduru believes that the Turks still go with the first chance. It is, however, contradicted by bookmakers. Craiova is clearly favorite in bets, with a share of 1.35. The Turks have 3.
Basarab Panduru, before Craiova – Bașakșehir: “If he plays the Red Star in Pafos, isn't the Red Star favorite?”

“It seems to me that the big pressure is on Bașakșehir, she has to lose. What do you want more (no Craiova) when you go away? Did they prefer to lose? By name and players, Bașakșehir is a favorite to qualify. Do you think the qualification is over? Is Bașakșehir better.
If he plays the Red Star at Pafos, isn't the Red Star favorite? How not to be? She's a favorite team. The better rated team, with an extra chance at the time of drawing is Bașakșehir. It can happen to lose a match. It is clear that it was a great victory, but the favorite was Bașakșehir. Was it better to lose 0-1 so that the victory was not afraid?
I didn't think he would win Craiova, I thought it would give it empty. You have to enjoy this moment and do tactics, Rădoi knows. Now you have 2-1, you can catch the counterattack. The team to risk is Bașakșehir. Craiova has to stay quiet, they will catch them and will give them a counterattack, “said Basarab Panduru, at the first sport.
