Craiova University will receive Fridays at 19:00 pm in Bănie in a match counting for the 7th round of the League 1 visit of the Astra Giurgiu formation.
Before this match, the Oltenians are 6th in League 1 with 10 points, while the Giurgiu are 8th at two lengths behind.
The university comes after the draw from Moldova, where it obtained the first point in the history of the confrontations with FC Botosani on the move, score 1-1. The same result was also recorded in Giurgiu between Astra and Viitorul, the constants benefiting from an anthological autologue of Gabi Tamas, who made his presence felt at the beginning in the astral shirt. The Giurgiuveni have managed to transfer Budescu in the meantime, but it is hard to believe that Dan Alexa will give him the opportunity to debut “Ion Oblemenco”.
The duels between Olteni and Giurgiuveni were always under the sign of balance, proof of this being the statistics of the last 10 “direct” in which 4 times the University prevailed, 3 times Astra while 3 duels ended undecided.
But Craiova has a series of five consecutive matches in all competitions without victory, the last success in Liga 1 being achieved also in front of their fans with the score of 1-0 against the newly promoted Chindia Târgoviște. This time is not at all the pleasure of the fans from Bania who have lost their confidence in the technician Corneliu Papură, being vehemently challenged at the last matches of the University. More than sure, the Oltenians will force from the first minute and storm the gate of the Giurgiuven, which could cost them dearly.
PREDICTION: U Craiova to win @ 1,98
