Csikszereda team overview
FK Csíkszereda are debutants in the Romanian Super Liga after winning promotion from Liga II last season. However, the joy of that achievement has quickly turned to frustration. They are still waiting for their first league win of the campaign and have collected just a single point from six fixtures. To make matters worse, they are on a five-match losing streak in the league, though an emphatic 8–1 victory over Liga II side FC Voluntari in the Cup provided some temporary relief.
The newcomers have struggled to adapt to the pace and demands of top-flight football. Both their lack of goals and defensive vulnerabilities have highlighted the difficulties they are facing in the early weeks of the 2025/26 campaign.

Otelul team overview
Otelul, by contrast, are a far more established Super Liga side. They finished 9th last season and, judging by their early results, look set for another mid-table campaign in 2025/26. Their first seven fixtures have produced two wins, three draws, and two defeats — a solid but unspectacular start.
As the more experienced team at this level, Otelul are expected to dictate the tempo and control the midfield. Forward Patrick Fernandes has been the standout performer so far, scoring three goals in the opening rounds.

Prediction
Csíkszereda’s debut season in the Super Liga has been disastrous, with just one point earned from seven games and five consecutive defeats in the league. Oțelul, while not exceptional, are far more stable and experienced, having already secured nine points. Given the hosts’ dreadful form, there seems to be only one likely outcome: a win for Otelul Galati.
Three reasons we expect Otelul Galati to Win
- FK Csikszereda are still winless after 7 matches in the Romanian Super Liga 2025/26 season.
- Otelul have only lost once in the last 5 league games and have only conceded 2 goals in the last 4 Super Liga encounters.
- FK Csikszereda have lost 5 league games in a row.
