Petrolul Ploieşti will be looking for an improved result here following a 1-2 Liga I loss in their previous game against Sepsi Sfântu Gheorghe.

It’s been seldom in recent games where Petrolul Ploieşti have shown defensive steel.

Nevertheless, we must now wait to see whether that pattern shall be replicated in this upcoming game or not.

🗞️ Team News: Petrolul Ploieşti

The Petrolul Ploieşti boss Florin Pârvu has a full complement, with no fitness worries at all before this game thanks to a fully healthy squad available to choose from.

It’s our opinion that Lupii galbeni may well use the 4-2-3-1 formation for the game and select Lukas Zima, Lucian Dumitriu, Paul Papp, G. Gomes Garutti, Valentin Ticu, Sergiu Hanca, Takayuki Seto, A. Marian Musi, Jair, Alexandru Isfan and Albin Berisha.

ℹ️ Team News: FC U Craiova

Owing to a completely healthy group available to select from, the FC U Craiova boss Giovanni Constantino does not have any fitness worries at all coming into this game.

We believe Studenții seem likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system by sending out Ion-Cristian Gurau, Radu Negru, Rokas Lekiatas, Leo Lacroix, Matheus Mascarenhas, Vlad Achim, Constantin Albu, William Baeten, Juan Bauza, Aurelian Chitu and Vladislav Blanuta.

⚡ Prediction

Our assessment here is that FC U Craiova will need things to go their way to breach the defence of this Petrolul Ploieşti side who should score at least once to gain the upper hand.

We therefore fancy a 1-0 win for Petrolul Ploieşti when the referee blows for full-time.

Looking forward to this.
