Universitatea Craiova have had a mixed run lately, winning one, losing two and drawing two of their recent matches. Rapid are in better shape, with three wins, one draw and just one loss in their last five games. When these two teams meet, the games are usually tight and low-scoring, with several recent meetings ending in draws or one-goal results.

This looks like a close match that could go either way, but Rapid's stronger recent form gives them a slight edge. A draw is also very possible given how evenly matched these sides have been in past meetings.
