CFR 1907 Cluj and Manchester United FC will meet for the first time when the three-time winners visit the Stadionul Dr. Constantin Rădulescu for their second Group H fixture. • CFR coach Ioan Andone has taken on United in the past, his FC Dinamo Bucureşti side beaten by Sir Alex Ferguson's team in 2004/05 UEFA Champions League qualifying. • The Romanian champions began this season brightly, claiming a 2-0 win at SC Braga on matchday one when United edged out Galatasaray AŞ 1-0. Match background • CFR showed solid home form in this season's qualifying rounds, posting 1-0 wins against FC Slovan Liberec and FC Basel 1893. • CFR's first home point in the UEFA Champions League came from a 0-0 draw with Chelsea FC in the 2008/09 group stage. It was their first encounter with English opposition and they followed it up with a 2-1 defeat at Stamford Bridge. • Although CFR took just that one home point in the 2008/09 group stage they fared better second time round in 2010/11, beating Basel and holding AS Roma on top of a defeat by FC Bayern München. • United's only away success in last term's UEFA Champions League came on Romanian soil, 2-0 at FC Oţelul Galaţi through two Wayne Rooney penalties. They ended the night with ten men after Nemanja Vidić's dismissal. • United's only other trip to Romania was for the aforementioned UEFA Champions League third qualifying round tie against Andone's Dinamo Bucureşti in 2004/05. Ryan Giggs scored United's opening goal in a 2-1 first-leg win at Bucharest's old Lia Manoliu Stadium – the site of the new National Arena. Darren Fletcher and Paul Scholes also played, though only Fletcher featured in United's 3-0 second-leg success. Team ties • Andone was a player in the Romania team beaten 3-0 in a March 1986 friendly against a Scotland side led, in his role as caretaker manager, by Sir Alex. Andone also played in Dinamo Bucureşti's 1-0 first-leg loss at Liverpool FC in the 1983/84 European Champion Clubs' Cup semi-final. • Andone's only past success against English opposition came against Everton FC in the 2005/06 UEFA Cup first round, his Dinamo team winning the first leg 5-1 in Bucharest to set up a 5-2 overall triumph. • Sir Alex visited Romania with Aberdeen FC in the 1981/82 UEFA Cup second round, earning a 2-2 draw – and a 5-2 aggregate win – against the club now called FC Argeş Piteşti. • In May 2006 Nani made his Portugal Under-21 debut against France in the same team as Diogo Valente. Nani was in Sporting Clube de Portugal's youth ranks when Mário Felgueiras was the club's third-choice goalkeeper. • Chris Smalling hit an 83rd-minute winner in England's 2-1 victory against Romania in a UEFA European U21 Championship play-off in Norwich in October 2010. Ioan Hora, who is at CFR but not in the UEFA Champions League squad, scored Romania's goal against an England team also including Tom Cleverley, Phil Jones and Danny Welbeck. • Patrice Evra faced Gabriel Mureşan in France's 2-2 FIFA World Cup qualifying draw with Romania in Constanta in October 2008, and lined up against Vasile Maftei in the 1-1 return draw in Paris. • In the same South Africa 2010 qualifying group, Vidić was in the Serbia team that dismantled Maftei's Romania 5-0 in Belgrade to secure their finals berth. He also played in Serbia's 3-2 victory in Constanta. • Giggs was in the Wales team denied a 1994 World Cup finals place by a 2-1 home defeat by Romania in Cardiff in November 1993. He was on the receiving end of a 5-1 loss in Bucharest in the same campaign. • Scholes was a member of the England side eliminated from UEFA EURO 2000 after a 3-2 reverse against Romania in their final group game. He also lost 2-1 to Romania with England at the 1998 World Cup. • Robin van Persie struck the second goal in the Netherlands' 2-0 win against Romania that ended their hopes of progress at UEFA EURO 2008.

In 2001/02 they had been a third division side but were now established in the top division and claimed the domestic double in 2007/08 – their first major honours and the first time the league title had left Bucharest since 1991 – to earn a UEFA Champions League debut. • Sacked in September 2008 after a slow start to the season, Andone tried his luck in the Middle East and then Bulgaria with CSKA before returning to Romania with Rapid and Dinamo. Rejoined CFR in April 2012, claiming another league title the following month.

Has since added 11 more championships − including the Red Devils' record 19th English crown in 2010/11 − to a domestic collection which includes five FA Cups and four League Cups. • Guided United to European Cup Winners' Cup glory with victory against FC Barcelona in 1991, though his greatest achievements are the UEFA Champions League triumphs of 1999 and 2008. Also reached UEFA Champions League finals in 2009 and 2011, losing to Barça on each occasion. • Knighted in June 1999, Sir Alex is head of the UEFA Coaches Panel.

UEFA Champions League: Did you know? • Holders Chelsea FC are hoping to avoid becoming the first defending champions to fail to get through a group stage since the UEFA Champions League began. (This record, like the others, includes the seasons between 1999/2000 and 2002/03 that featured a second group stage). In 1992/93, FC Barcelona were the reigning European Champion Clubs' Cup holders and lost 4-3 on aggregate in the second round by PFC CSKA Moskva. • No team has successfully defended the UEFA Champions League trophy with AC Milan (1989, 1990) the last club to win consecutive European Cups. Milan (1994, 1995), AFC Ajax (1995, 1996), Juventus (1996, 1997) and Manchester United FC (2008, 2009) have all returned to the UEFA Champions League final as holders only to lose. • S.S. Lazio goalkeeper Marco Ballotta is the oldest player to compete in the UEFA Champions League having featured against Real Madrid CF on matchday six in 2007/08 aged 43 years and 252 days. Alessandro Costacurta is the oldest outfield player; the Milan defender was 40 years and 211 days when he played against AEK Athens FC in 2006/07. • Ryan Giggs is the oldest player to score in the competition, aged 37 years and 289 days, in Manchester United's 1-1 draw at SL Benfica on 14 September 2011. • Celestine Babayaro is the youngest player to have appeared; he was 16 years and 87 days when he started for RSC Anderlecht against FC Steaua Bucureşti on 23 November 1994. He was sent off in the 37th minute. • Peter Ofori-Quaye is the youngest player to have scored in the UEFA Champions League, aged 17 years and 195 days. He found the net in Olympiacos FC's 5-1 defeat at Rosenborg BK on 1 October 1997. • Lionel Messi became the first player to score five goals in a match in Barcelona's 7-1 win against Bayer 04 Leverkusen on 7 March 2012. Eight players, including Messi, have scored four times in a game, most recently FC Bayern München's Mario Gomez on matchday eight last season. • Barcelona have finished as group winners on 13 occasions, one more than Manchester United and Real Madrid. • Five teams have recorded six successive victories in a UEFA Champions League group stage: Milan (1992/93), Paris Saint-Germain FC (1994/95), FC Spartak Moskva (1995/96), Barcelona (2002/03, first group stage) and Real Madrid (2011/12). • Fifteen teams have gone through a UEFA Champions League group stage without picking up a single point, including Villarreal CF, FC Oţelul Galaţi and GNK Dinamo Zagreb in 2011/12. • Barcelona scored 20 goals in the 2011/12 group stage, equalling Manchester United's competition record from 1998/99. Barcelona scored 19 times in the 1999/2000 first group stage, a tally matched by Real Madrid last season. • Dinamo Zagreb conceded 22 goals in the 2011/12 group stage, a new record. The previous highest goals against total was 19, shared by MŠK Žilina (2010/11), Debreceni VSC (2009/10), FC Dynamo Kyiv (2007/08) and Ferencvárosi TC in 1995/96. • No team has ever gone through a UEFA Champions League group stage without conceding a goal. Milan (1992/93), Ajax (1995/96), Juventus (1996/97 and 2004/05), Chelsea (2005/06), Liverpool FC (2005/06), Villarreal (2005/06) and Manchester United (2010/11) all let in just one. • Before their 3-1 win against Sporting Clube de Portugal on matchday six of the 2006/07 campaign, Spartak Moskva went 22 games without a victory in the competition. • The lowest total for a team qualifying from the group stage is seven points. The first to do it since three points for a win was introduced in 1995/96 were Legia Warszawa that same season before Dynamo Kyiv and Bayer 04 Leverkusen managed it in 1999/2000 and Liverpool in 2001/02. FC Lokomotiv Moskva and eventual finalists Juventus both progressed with seven points in 2002/03, as did Rangers FC and SV Werder Bremen in 2005/06. • Only two teams have ever won the UEFA Champions League on home soil: Borussia Dortmund (1997, final in Munich) and Juventus (1996, final in Rome), while Manchester United lost the 2011 final in London and 12 months later Bayern were beaten in the showpiece in their own stadium, the Fußball Arena München.
