Universitatea Craiova enters the final with momentum, demonstrated by their recent 4-0 victory against Cluj at Cluj Arena and multiple wins across the season. Cluj's strong home form ensures a competitive atmosphere, but Craiova's attack, averaging 3 goals in recent games, could carry an advantage.
Craiova's squad is fully fit, with no injuries reported, allowing them to maintain their attacking intensity. Cluj's squad features a mix of experienced defenders and youthful attackers, with some key players in good form, but recent injuries are not reported to influence the lineup.
Given the recent head-to-head form and the current league standings, Universitatea Craiova has shown consistent scoring power and defensive solidity. Universitatea Cluj's recent form is solid at home, but their recent results against Craiova indicate a slight edge to the visitors, especially considering Craiova's higher recent goal average.
Both teams prefer an attacking style, but Craiova's ability to create goal-scoring chances from open play suggests a potential for over 2.5 goals. Cluj's resilience in defense at home, however, could limit their opposition. Expect Craiova to press high, utilizing their quick transition play to exploit any defensive lapses.
