Metaloglobus – Csikszereda, the last game of the play-out round number 4, will be played today, the day after Easter, from 15:30. The Clinceni duel will be broadcast in liveTEXT format by GSP, being televised by PrimaSport 1 & DigiSport 1.
After the good start with Florin Bratu on the bench, the band from Pantelimon suffered a severe defeat in the last round, 1-5 in Arad. Another failure today would take them seriously out of the play-off places and make saving from relegation an almost impossible mission.
The victory is also vital for Ciucani, involved in their turn in an intense battle in the red zone of the ranking, alongside Hermannstadt, Unirea Slobozia and Farul Constanța.
