It's the second chance for points this season as U Craiova 1948 and Dinamo Bucureşti battle it out at Stadionul Ion Oblemenco.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
U Craiova 1948 form and stats
Last season, U Craiova 1948's league statistics were 9 wins, 8 draws and 2 losses, resulting in a 1st position in the Liga 2. Over these 19 matches they scored 30 goals and conceded 15. Playing at home last season U Craiova 1948 managed 5-3-1 (win-draw-lost) with 16 goals and 6 conceded. U Craiova 1948 have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.
No payout for Craiova in their previous match, an away game at CFR Cluj that ended in defeat 2-3.
The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a Liga 2 home game that ended 0-0 versus Dunarea Calarasi.There will be little rest for U Craiova 1948 after this match as they are travelling to Voluntari for a Liga 1 game in only four days.
Dinamo Bucureşti form and stats

Bucureşti are travelling after their nice 3-2 home win in the Liga 1 against Voluntari (placed 12th). Deian Sorescu certainly enjoyed Bucureşti's last game versus Voluntari, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 3-2 victory.
Ahead of that game was the 0-0 draw at home against Chindia Targoviste.After this away game Dinamo Bucureşti return home for a Liga 1 game against Academica Clinceni. That game is only four sleeps after this.
