Sepsi and Rapid complete the 3rd stage of the playoffs with a crucial game only for the visitors who still hope for a place in the Conference League, while the hosts have the opportunity to win the Romanian Cup to reach Europe again.

Sepsi are 6th on 21 points, seven points behind Rapid, and have little chance of securing another European Cup spot via the Championship, especially as they lost both their play-off legs, 1-2 away to Farulom and 1-2 at home with FCSB.

Cristiano Bergodi’s side will be focused on the Romanian Cup, where they entered the ‘box’ of the competition with a 4-1 home win over CS Mioveni in midweek last week.

Sepsi have six wins, four draws and six defeats in their home matches this season in the league, while Mario Rondon is the team’s top scorer with nine successes in the Super League.

“There is a lot of talk about Sepsi’s defeat in the playoffs, but we reached the semi-finals of the Romanian Cup for the second year in a row. We are trying to make a good figure in the playoffs, but we are playing against very good teams, with valuable lots and bigger budgets,” said Sepsi coach Cristiano Bergodi.

Rapid are in 5th place with 28 points and are fighting for at least 4th place, which could go straight to the Conference League if CFR Cluj wins the Romanian Cup.

Giulesti are yet to win in this play-off, which saw Adrian Mutu’s side draw twice: 2-2 away to CFR Cluj and 1-1 at home to Farul.

Rapid has five wins, five draws and six losses in away games this Super League season, and the team’s top scorer is Marko Dugandzic, who scored 16 goals in the championship.

“This is the goal, a place in the European Cup, we hope to start winning. After the first two matches against the top two teams, we now have a tough match against Sepsi, even though they are in sixth place,” said Adrian Mutu, coach of Rapid.

“Sepsi” never managed to impose themselves in five straight matches with “Rapid”, and in regular season games, the “Giuslet” team won each time with a score of 2:1 against “St. Gheorghe” on August 27, 2022 (Sefer 27, Al. Ionica 45+2 respectively, Rondon 21p) and 3-0 in Giulesti on January 20, 2023 (Dugandzic 5, 13, 19p).
