Corvinul Hunedoara welcome CFR Cluj at Stadionul Michael Klein on Sunday, Aug 16 at 8:30 PM in a Liga 1 fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Corvinul Hunedoara come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 2D 1L). CFR Cluj travel out of form (1W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
