Botoșani and FCV Farul Constanța face off in Botoșani on Monday afternoon in what will be their first match of the 2025–26 Romanian top-flight season.
Both sides narrowly avoided relegation last season, with the hosts finishing just a point above the relegation zone and Farul finishing three points above the bottom four.
Heading into the final game of the 2024–25 season, Botoșani needed to beat Hermannstadt to avoid relegation — and they did just that. Leontin Grozavu’s team won 2:1, despite a late scare from Hermannstadt but their performances during pre-season were poor. They managed only one win in four matches, with three defeats and shipped nine goals.
Farul also had a disappointing pre-season, winning only two of their six games. One of those victories came against Radnicki Niš last weekend at the TBC Arena in Bulgaria, where they scored three goals in a game for the first time since April. The Sailors will be hoping for a similar outcome on Monday, but it will not be easy as they have lost their last three meetings with Botoșani.
