Universitatea Craiova will receive Sunday from 16:00 in the first round of the new season of the League 1 visit of the newly promoted Academica Clinceni.
With the third chance for the title in this season, after CFR Cluj and FCSB, the Oltenians propose that in this championship not to make the mistakes of the previous season, because of the synopsis they had in front of the small teams , went into the big-game play-off and they were just one step away from participating in the Europa League, being saved by Viitorul, who left a free spot after winning the Romanian Cup.
The duel with Academica Clinceni seems to be one without a history for the Oltenians, with only the difference with which the game ends. The Oltenians have an iron morale after their victory in Azerbaijan in the European League, the first after a 26-year break and more sure that Bancu & co will give everything to start right in the new League 1 edition.
The newly-promoted Academica Clinceni is quoted by specialists with few chances to keep in League One, the bookmakers anticipating that the band prepared by Ilie Poenaru will only last a season on the first football stage of the country, going back to the second league, a. As a matter of fact, Academica has the first chance to relegate, having a 1.50 share to go to the Second League at the end of the 2019-2020 season of League 1.
Academica chose to play League II with a second league lot, the players who kept the promotion hard to keep, the group being filled with Nicolae Calancea, Gabriel Matei, Okan Chatziterzoglou, Alexandru Dinu, Alexandru Nicola, Cristian Andrei, Salvator Marrone , Eugeniu Cebotaru, Mihailo Mitrov, Robert Ion, Cristian Dumitru, Philippe Nsiah, Jakub Vojtuš and Daniel Esteves, players under League 1.
We expect Oltenians to be aggressive and to put pressure on the opponents in the first minute. More surely Papura will send the best 11 in the field to get the victory and debut with the right in the championship.
PREDICTION: Univ. Craiova to win @ 1,55
