Universitatea Cluj and Argeş meet in clearly different circumstances. The hosts lost 3-4 in their last league match, while the visitors also lost 0-1, but the overall picture of the two teams is completely different. Universitatea Cluj have won 3 of their last 5 league matches, scoring 20 goals in 11 games but also conceding 18, so their defence is not exactly tight. Argeş, meanwhile, have scored just 6 goals in 11 games and failed to score at all in their last match, a 0-1 defeat. The visitors' attack relies mainly on the 16-30 minute period, but their defence leaks badly late in games, conceding 48% of all their goals between the 76th and 90th minutes. This game is likely to see the hosts dominate possession and push forward, while Argeş sit back and wait to counter. The first half may still be close, but in the second half the hosts should step up the pressure and have more chances to score. The visitors must try to hold the game together until the end, because the closing stages are when they concede most often.
