The match of the 9th stage of the Super League “U” Cluj – FC U Craiova 1948 will take place on Friday, August 2, at 21:30 at the “Gaz Metan” stadium in Mediaş, live broadcast on Digi Sport 1, Prima Sport 1 and Orange Sports 1.
U Cluj are still searching for their first win in the Super Lig after a lackluster start to the season that saw them pick up just three points (from three draws) in eight outings.
The Red Caps will also play FC Craiova 1948 in Mediaş after the FRF banned the club from hosting games at its own stadium for two matches (plus a sporting fine of 25,000 lei) following the incidents from meeting with Sepsis St. George.
Transylvania moved into the relegation zone after the first six matches, but Eugen Nyagoe, Eric Linkard’s replacement, managed just one point in two matches, that’s right, both away, 0-0 with FC Voluntari and 0-1 with Fast.
“I can promise that I will do everything in my power to make this team look better and better to stay in League One this season and next year we can make the play-offs. If we don’t get to the playoffs, I’m leaving the ship!”, – said Eugen Nyagoe.
FC Craiova bounced back from a poor performance in the previous stage with a 1-0 win over Sepsi on the back of emotion and a controversial goal from Sekou Sidibe.
With two wins in their last four Superliga games, Olten boss Marius Kroitoru is looking to replace Andrea Compagno, who left FCSB for €1.5 million (plus 10% of the future transfer fee).
“As far as I have spoken with Adi (no – Adrian Mititelu), she is in talks with the striker. We are waiting for him to come. If he doesn’t come, we will try to get a result with the players we have because they are good players. Compaño is a player in whom a huge amount has been invested, but there should be no pressure on him. As a coach, you can’t help but love such a player,” Marius told Kroitor.
In the last two head-to-head matches between the two teams, U Cluj has defeated FC U Craiova each time: 3-2 in 2019 in the Round of 16 of the Romanian Cup and 1-0 in 2021 in the regular season. Leagues 2.
