Analysis U Craiova 1948

The home team comes to this 2nd round after a (3‑0) win in their league debut, against Mioveni. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 17 conceded; against 9 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 10 conceded. For the league, U Craiova 1948 won 20 points out of 30 possible points, after 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 10 home matches.

They have won the last 5 home matches for this competition. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 17 of their 31 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2.

Craiova 1948 made a season with a lot of oscillation, finishing in the relegation clearance round, as their attack has shown some regularity, but their defence has not been very reliable, especially playing away from home, despite winning again in the last round. Now, they look to keep the good momentum playing with the support of their fans. The coach Nicolò Napoli must adopt the usual tactical system: the 4-2-3-1, organising the attacks always in search of their centre-forward Gabriel Iancu. The coach will not be able to count on two players for the match: right-back Alexandru Voda and right winger William Baeten, both injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Ion-Cristian Gurau, André Duarte, Lorenzo Paramatti, Danny Henriques, Radu Negru, Jeremy Huyghebaert, Juan Bauza, Constantin Albu, George Ganea, Vladislav Blănuță, Samuel Asamoah.
Coach: N. Napoli.

Analysis Petrolul 52

The away team comes to this 2nd round after a (1‑0) win in their league debut, against UTA Arad. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 7 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 21 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Petrolul 52 has a record of 2 wins and 8 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 14 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Petrolul started the season poorly, managed to put together a good run at one point, but have been slumping recently, as well as dropping a lot in production when away from home, despite getting back to winning ways in the last round. However, the team has been showing a very efficient attack at home, which was not enough to escape the relegation round of the competition. The coach should adopt the usual tactical system: the 4-3-3, organizing the attacks on the sides, prioritizing deep shots and long balls, in a very reactive posture. Everything indicates that the full squad will be available for the match.

Confirmed Lineup: Seniko Romeo Doua, Octavian Valceanu, Bart Meijers, Félix Mathaus, Valentin Țicu, Paul Papp, Lucian Dumitriu, Takayuki Seto, Jair, Gheorghe Grozav, Christian Irobiso.
Coach: L. Balint.
