Gloria Buzau @ Gaz Metan Mediaş
Universitatea Craiova @ Argeş Piteşti
CS Otopeni @ Steaua Bucureşti
Roş-Albaştrii are steamrolling at the top of the table and after a tough fought draw in Champions League against Fiorentina, bottom-of-table CS Otopeni should be run rough-shod. Steaua Bucureşti are murderous at home, yet to give up a point and have conceded a single goal.
CFR Cluj @ F.C. Oţelul Galaţi
Likely the match of the weekend as while Cluj has performed brilliantly in Europe, domestic play has not been spectacular. Galaţi is a single point behind in the table and will not allow many scoring opportunities for the visitors.
Rapid Bucureşti @ CS Pandurii Târgu Jiu
This of course will be the dramatic setting of the weekend as all eyes will be watching how Rapid Bucureşti reacts after suspending manager Jose Peseiro following the today’s miserable performance against Wolfsburg in the UEFA Cup.
Farul Constanţa @ Dinamo Bucureşti
'Câinii Roşii is seeing red (someone tell me you get it) after the disappointment of being bounced out of the UEFA Cup. Sitting top of the table Dinamo will be looking to enact some revenge and has yet to give up a point at home in domestic competition.
Gloria Bistriţa @ Timişoara
Timişoara is committed to overcoming their six-point deduction and virtually unbeatable. This could be the most explosive match of the weekend combining Timişoara high-scoring attack and Gloria Bistriţa porous defending.
FC Vaslui @ FC Braşov
Very important middle of the table match. Braşov will provide few if any scoring options and will counter, a major weakness in Vaslui's game.
Politehnica Iaşi @ Unirea Voluntari Urziceni
Co top-of-the-table Unirea should easily handle cellar-dweller Iaşi and stay abreast of Dinamo Bucureşti in this match.
