Universitatea Craiova enter this clash after defeating champions FCSB 2-0 in their last clash, with goals from Raul Silva (3rd minute) and Andrei Ivan (71st minute) being the game's differences. Darius Olaru got a chance to score a consolation goal for FCSB in the 77th minute, but he missed from the spot. The win was their second in a row, and they sit second on the table with 40 points, the same points as third-placed CFR Cluj.

Both sides have met 13 times in their history. Farul won 6, Universitatea Craiova won 6, and 1 ended in a draw. The last game between the two sides ended 2-1 in favour of Farul.

With the look of things, Universitatea Craiova are better than we can imagine, as they defeated the champions in their last game. I don’t see them seeing a defeat in their quest to finish in the top 2 on the table. However, 7 of the last 9 head-to-head games between the two sides have seen BTTS results.
