FC Arges

LDDLL

Argeș, representing the Argeș county and their city of Pitești have had a mixed Championship Group campaign. They began their outing with a brilliant run of form, but recent results have now put that in hindsight. They arrive this fixture without a winning result in five straight games, since securing a victory in the reverse fixture of this tie. Three losses in their last five heading into this fixture reflects the difficulty of competing against Romania's elite clubs in this phase. At Stadionul Trivale, they retain home advantage and local support in hopes of securing important matchday points.

Craiova,the Oltenia club with one of Romania's most passionate fan bases have on the contrary been in excellent form in this championship group. As such, they've pushed up all the way to second place on the log with an impressive point tally of 39. Over the past five games, they've taken four victories; picking up clean sheets across all of them. The only differing result in the period was a difficult four-nil defeat on the road to U.Cluj. Away at Argeș, their quality and form makes them the strong favourites.
