Rapid Bucuresti
- Rapid Bucuresti have won seven, drawn two and lost two home league games this season.
- Rapid have conceded an average of just 1.00 goals per game at home in Liga I this term.
Universitatea Cluj

Head-to-Head
- The last two head-to-heads between Rapid and U Cluj in Liga I finished level.
- Rapid have failed to win their last two home games against the club from Transylvania.
Key Players
- Alex Dobre is their talisman with 13 goals in 23 Liga I appearances, three of which have come in their last five, during which they have won two, drawn one and lost two.
- Jovo Lukic has been a great find for Bergodi with 11 goals in 20 Liga I games.
Betting Insights
- Rapid Bucuresti enter Saturday’s Liga I matchup with Universitatea Cluj as slight favorites at 1.98, while the visitors are 3.7 to take the win.
- The bet that catches the eye here, however, is Under 2.5 goals at 1.7 as both sides have pretty good defensive records and like to keep things tight.
Prediction
- Our recommendation is to go with Rapid to nick a low-scoring game against a well-organised team that have already held them to draws twice this term.
- But U Cluj are in such good form, winning four of their last five Liga I matches, that we can’t quite trust Rapid to get the win even at the short odds available.
