ℹ️ Team News: Dinamo Bucharest

It’s our opinion that Dinamoviștii will probably opt for a 4-3-3 system for the game, utilising Adnan Golubovic, Maxime Sivis, Iulius Marginean, Raul Oprut, Antonio Luna, Patrick Olsen, Eddy Gnahore, Catalin Cirjan, Georgi Milanov, Stipe Perica and Astrit Selmani.

🗞️ Team News: Universitatea Craiova

Universitatea Craiova manager Constantin Gâlcă has to choose a team with limited availability. Luis Paradela (Cruciate ligament surgery) and Alexandru Cicâldău (unknown injury) are those who can’t be considered.

We are inclined to think that Studenţii might utilise a 4-3-3 system by sending out Laurentiu Popescu, Carlos Mora, Gjoko Zajkov, Juraj Badelj, Nicusor Bancu, Takuto Oshima, Vladimir Screciu, Anzor Mekvabishvili, Stefan Baiaram, Jovo Lukic and Alexandru Mitrita.

💡 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Dinamo Bucharest may not find it easy to register a score against this Universitatea Craiova lineup who should score one, at least.

That’s why our selection here is for a good battle with a 0-1 win for Universitatea Craiova when the referee blows for full-time.

We’ll see what happens.
