Piţurcă has decided which players will send on the pitch tonight in the game that is probably going to be the headline of this round in Liga I.
Ţicleanu will improvise again and will use Madalin Ciuca (27 years old) on the left lane, as he did in the precedent round against CFR Cluj. David Lopez (28 years old), the latest transfer for U. Craiova is most certainly not be playing tonight because of an injury.

It is very hard to make a prediction for this game. Steaua transferred 14 new players this summer and they still have to gather some experience together. On the other hand, U. Craiova has a young team, but the play relations are bond much stronger. The stadium is sold-out, so Craiova is going to face Hell in Bucharest.
