Farul, rehearsal before play-out » Starting teams + best odds

Robert Ilyeș's boys have collected ten points in the last five stages, an important dowry for the play-out. On the other hand, the “sailors” had an extremely difficult schedule during this period, meeting only teams from the play-off zone. Dobrogeni lost the last two matches, 0-1 with FC Argeș and 1-2 with CFR Cluj.

If the Chicuans prevail today, the distance between the two teams, after halving the points, would be only three points, and the Dobrogens would benefit from the rounding.
