Matchday 4 of the 2025/26 UEFA Europa League group stage will see Basel (Switzerland) take on FCSB (Romania) on November 6 at St. Jakob-Park. Basel vs. FCSB: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Eugene Jaya (Albania)
Matches – 9 (International matches, 2024/25–2025/26);
Yellow cards shown (including second yellows) – 45;
Average yellow cards per match – 5;
Red cards shown – 1;

After three rounds, Basel and FCSB both have three points. The teams are fighting for a place in the playoff knockout rounds, and any loss of points will significantly complicate that task.
Basel return to European competition after an important match in the Super League (Switzerland), where they failed to beat Young Boys away (0:0). This result can be viewed as a missed opportunity, considering the hosts played with a numerical advantage for almost the entire second half. The team have shown inconsistent form: only one win in their last four matches with two defeats, reflecting issues with chance conversion.
FCSB struggled at the start of the SuperLiga (Romania), but despite recent improvement they remain outside the championship group (eighth place with 19 points after the first round). Notably, their only win in the UEFA Europa League came away — 1:0 against Go Ahead Eagles. In the last two rounds of the national league, the visitors recorded convincing wins with an aggregate score of 6:0, indicating growing confidence and better organisation.
It may only be the SuperLiga (Romania), but given the visitors won their last two league matches with a combined 6:0, we believe they will compete to the end in Switzerland and are capable of taking points.
