Universitatea Cluj led for most of the first phase of the Romanian Super League, drawing 1-1 away to Farul in the last round with a goal from Mamadou Thiam. The team's tactical structure is 4-2-3-1, exploiting dynamics down the flanks to overcome the opposition's defenses. In the creative sector, Dan Nistor leads the action, articulating plays with vision and precision passing. In attack, Vladislav Blănuță stands out for his finishing ability and intelligent movement in the box. Mamadou Thiam is also gaining ground, becoming an increasingly influential alternative in the attacking sector. It seems that the full squad will be available for the match.

Confirmed Lineup: Ştefan Lefter, Iulian Cristea, Dorinel Oancea, Lucas Masoero, Alexandru Chipciu, Andrei Artean, Dan Nistor, Valentin Simion, Ovidiu Bic, Mamadou Thiam, Issouf Macalou.
