📰 Team News: UTA Arad

Almost everyone can be considered, as there’s just the lone fitness concern for the UTA Arad gaffer Mircea Rednic to contend with from an otherwise complete group. Cristian Mihai (muscular problems) is out of contention.

It seems likely that UTA Arad could use the 4-3-3 system for the game, utilising Dejan Iliev, Damien Dussaut, Florent Poulolo, Ibrahima Conte, Razvan Trif, Eric Johana Omondi, Joher Khadim Rassoul, Paul-Jose M'Poku, Marian Danciu, Nsungusi Effiong and Valentin Costache.

ℹ️ Team News: Sepsi Sfântu Gheorghe

We believe Alb-roșii might utilise a 4-3-3 formation, starting Szilard Gyenge, Bogdan Otelita, Denis Harut, Branislav Ninaj, Andres Dumitrescu, Mihajlo Neskovic, Sota Mino, Cosmin Matei, Omar El Sawy, Marius Coman and Dimitri Oberlin.

🔮 Prediction

Our feeling is that Sepsi Sfântu Gheorghe and UTA Arad may both struggle to make a breakthrough here.

Little in this one, and it’s almost too close to call. That is why we are leaning toward a very competitive game with a 0-0 draw at the end of the match.
