Betting suggestion:
The most likely scenario for this clash will be a good result for the hosts. CFR usually put in their best performances at home and are looking to win another title. Rapid, on the other hand, have left a lot to be desired at this stage and tend to drop off when away from home. We expect an open game, dominated by the hosts, who should control possession and create the main goal-scoring situations. Therefore, placing a bet on CFR to win at the end of the ninety minutes seems like a good alternative.

Rapid picked up their first win in the Hexagonal last time out, beating Dinamo Bucharest 1-0 with a goal from Elvir Koljić. Set up in a 4-1-4-1 formation, the team relies on the creativity and intense movement of Claudiu Petrila, Alexandru Dobre and Rares Pop to attack with consistency. Petrila, with his refined reading and ability to make decisions in the final third, takes center stage, leading both the distribution of decisive passes and the number of balls in the net, and is a key cog in the team's offensive machinery. Midfielder Diogo Mendes is still in the medical department and is likely to miss the next match.
