Summary
Go Ahead Eagles will play their much-anticipated debut in the Europa League when they host Romanian heavyweights FCSB at De Adelaarshorst on Thursday night.
The Dutch side secured their place in this tournament by winning the KNVB Cup last season, while FCSB are veterans of continental football, having reached the semi-finals of this tournament in 2006. Both teams will want to get off to winning ways to focus on their European journey ahead.
Form Guide
The Dutch side arrives unbeaten in their last three games and with two clean sheets in recent Eredivisie wins. In contrast, FCSB are struggling domestically with just one league victory all season, but remain resilient in European qualifiers.

Team Update
Go Ahead Eagles might be missing Soren Tengstedt, Pim Saathof, and Julius Dirksen for the match. Milan Smit, who scored a brace in the derby against PEC Zwolle, is working to earn a place in the starting lineup. Victor Edvardsen continues to be a vital part of the team's creativity and assists.
FCSB will not have the services of Adrian Sut (foot) and Joyskim Dawa (knee), but forward Florin Tanase remains their chief source of goals, although he has not scored in some time. Mamadou Thiam also provides versatility in the attacking third while contributing to goals and assists.
Match Preview
Go Ahead Eagles are treading into the unknown, as they meet FCSB in the club’s first-ever Europa League group-stage match. The crowd in Deventer will be charged with anticipation. Melvin Boel’s men will hope to turn their Eredivisie form in Europe, with solid defensive shape and speedy attacking transitions with Breum and Edvardsen at their front.
FCSB, however, has far more European pedigree and has been unbeaten in the last four continental matches. While their Liga I form has gone south, Elias Charalambous’s side can still counter-attack and exploit defences, especially through Tanase and Thiam.
This encounter sets up a fascinating contrast: the debutants with home support against a club with extensive European experience but fragile domestic form. This should be a competitive, high-energy match between two sides looking for a chance to impose their identity.
