The race for the first position in the ranking involves Rapid Bucharest, which will be taking on Sepsi Sfantu Gheorghe on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>The most important games for winning the championship and for qualification in the European Cups will take place on Saturday and Sunday. At the top of the table Farul Constanta goes to Craiova to play local side Universitatea, a team ranking fourth, which is hankering for a place in preliminaries of the European competition Conference League. A wrong step taken by Farul at this point is tantamount to failure as only three points are separating them from the runner-up FCSB they are going to meet in Ovidiu on 21st May. FCSB will be up against CFR Cluj, the champions of the past years in Bucharest on Sunday. CFR is presently ranking third and stands slim chances of winning the sixth consecutive title.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>On Friday FC Voluntari plays FC Boto\u015fani while on Saturday, Petrolul Ploie\u015fti, plays on their own turf Hermannstadt. Universitatea Cluj will be up against Chindia T\u00e2rgovi\u015fte, and if they win they will diminish Chindias chances to remain in the Superleague. On Sunday, CS Mioveni, which has already demoted will be playing on their own turf UTA Arad with the same number of points as Chindia and also striving to avoid demotion. Another match in the hot area at the bottom of the table is pitching FC Arges against FCU Craiova, Arges is also making desperate efforts to remain in the first Romanian football league.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p> (bill)<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A look at the weekend&#8217;s main sporting events<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":93,"featured_media":110110,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[40940],"tags":[28915,32162,35480,37140,37633],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-123446","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sport","tag-bucharest","tag-fcsb","tag-mioveni","tag-rapid","tag-sepsi"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
