FCU 1948 Craiova vs Rapid, the Romanian League 7th round match-up is scheduled for Friday, August 25 at 9:30 p.m. at Ion Oblemenco Stadium and will be broadcast live on Digi Sport 1, Orange Sport 1 and Prima Sport 2 .

FCU 1948 Craiova and Rapid meet in one of the most anticipated matches of the 7th stage, each of the two teams is far from the start of the championship scheduled for the start of the 2023-2024 edition of the Super League.

FCU 1948 Craiova has only six points accumulated after the first six stages of the championship and comes after a setback in the previous round, 3-4 away to Petrolul (fourth defeat of the season for Olteni).

Nicolae Dike was sacked after the last match, only a month after he was appointed to the technical bench, and the team will be prepared for the match against Rapid by physical trainer Dan Vasilike, a confidant of boss Adrian Mititelu.

“Parting with coaches before the deadline is extremely unpleasant! That’s just how I felt! It will be good, bad, only God knows! The pressure of objective players speaks for itself,” said Adrian Mititelu.

Otherwise, at home, FCU 1948 Craiova have won one and lost two in this league, with Aurelian Chitsu (four goals) and Seku Sidibe (three goals) as the team’s top scorers.

Rapid have collected eight points from six matches played and they won at home in the previous round, scoring 3-1 at Farul, a success that calmed the atmosphere in Giulesti.

In the away games of this season, Rapid won (3:0 against Cluj) and lost (1:2 against Voluntari), and the top scorer of the team and the championship is Marko Dugandzic, who has already achieved five goals.

“It can be an advantage for us that FCU 1948 Craiova just changed their coach, it can also be a disadvantage. I analyzed their game with Nicolae Dike, but who knows what they do this week? I mean the marking, the game system, we have no reference points. We will have to adapt immediately on the pitch,” Giulesti coach Cristiano Bergodi said.

In the previous season, the two teams met in the regular season, and FCU 1948 Craiova each time defeated Rapid, 1-0 in the round, at home (the match was held at Tg. Jiu), and 2 -1 away, in the second leg (to thing, Olten won the last four straight matches and did not lose to Julesti in 11 games, more precisely, since 2009).
