U Craiova vs CSM Politehnica Iași Picks

The hosts overcame the defeat with FCSB, winning in League 1 with Gaz Metan Mediaş and FC Viitorul and eliminating it in the Romanian Cup on CSM Resita. The guests are also successful in the Cup with Rapid Bucharest, but in League 1 they have not been able to beat anyone in the last 5 stages. After coming to Victor Piţurcă technical bank, which also brought Alexandru Măţel, Uroš Ćosić and Andrei Ivan, the Oltenians became much stronger. In addition came the Bosnian striker Elvir Koljić, who showed his class in the game with FC Viitorul. Moldovans have 5 defeats in 7 matches played on the University of Craiova field. They aim to get a point in Bănie, after losing in the last two trips from Mediaş and Ovidiu. Oltenia have only one draw in the last 17 matches played in Liga 1 and will certainly play for victory, to climb to the top of the standings, at least for one day.
