The elite Romanian football championship started in mid-July 2022 and will end in the first half of March 2023. During this time, 16 clubs will meet each other twice, for a total of 30 rounds. Then the first six teams will play in the Champions Group, and the rest in the Elimination Group. As a result, the top six will compete among themselves for sets of medals.

The bookmakers see four main contenders for gold medals: CFR Cluj, Farul Constanta, Steaua Bucharest and Rapid Bucharest. The two leading teams have the most chances, but the metropolitan teams will try to close the gap and impose a struggle.
CFR Cluj
Dan Petrescu’s team is having a good season. By the 18th round, he had a game less and lagged behind the first Farul from Constanta by four points. During this time, the “railroad” won 13 victories with one draw and four defeats. It is also worth noting that CFR Cluj continues to play in the UEFA Conference League. In the spring of 2023, the Romanians will play at the stage of 1/16 of the European Cup. In addition, from November to early December, the “white-burgundy” got four consecutive victories over the Universitatei Craiova, Mioven, Hermanstadt and Kindia Targovishte. If the brainchild of Ioan Varga does not slow down, then he will be able to count on the championship.
The team from Cluj-Napoca has a fairly strong squad by the standards of the Romanian championship and is able to solve the highest tasks. It will not be easy for the “white and burgundy” to get ahead of opponents from Constanta, but the “railwaymen” have more experienced players. So the inhabitants of the stadium “Constantin Radulescu” may well count on success.
Farul Constanta
Wards of Gheorghe Hadji can become the main sensation in the current draw of the Romanian football championship. Farul Constanța in the 2022/2023 season can get the league title for the first time in the history of the club. After 19 games played, the Mariners had a game more and were ahead of the second CFR Cluj by four points. By this point, the Sharks had the best offense in the league (41 goals scored) and the strongest defense (14 goals conceded). It is also important to add that the only defeat by the beginning of December for the “white-blue” was against the University of Craiova on the road with a score of 3:4.
The composition of the “people from Constanta” consists mainly of Romanian football players. The club has only two foreign players, namely the defender David Kiki from Benin and Kevin Doucure from Côte d’Ivoire. It will not be easy for the Sailors in the championship race, but given the form that the Sharks have gained, the team may well get the gold.
Steaua
The boys of Mihai Pintilia are not stable this season, but after 18 rounds the capital’s players were in the strongest four. Having a game less, the Red-Blues were two points behind Rapid from Bucharest, while the University of Craiova was ahead in additional indicators. It was possible thanks to the victories over these teams, as well as Botosani and Miovenem. In the first round, the “soldiers” quite often lost test points, as a result of which the capital team was 12 points behind the first Farul Constanta, which will be difficult to win back.
The Bucharest team has won exclusively silver medals in the domestic arena in recent years. This season, Steaua is unlikely to wedge into the fight even for silver.
Rapid Bucharest
The guys of Adrian Mutu cannot boast of stability, but after 19 matches played in the domestic arena, the team was in the top three. Although the “white-pomegranate” were six points behind the second CFR Cluj, and ten points behind Farul Constanta. In the November segment, the “railwaymen” lost in the Steaua derby and tied with the Universitatei Craiova. In early December, the capital club signed a world match with ACS Arges. Due to the loss of credits in these battles, the brainchild of Victor Angelescu and Dan Tsuku fell far behind the leaders of the championship. Rapid Bucharest will make every effort to return to the title race, but it will be extremely difficult to do so.
Our Forecast
With a high probability, CFR Cluj and Farul Constanta will compete for gold medals. The Mariners are in excellent shape and may well make a splash by winning their first championship in history. Bucharest Steaua and Rapid do not show stable results and, most likely, will play “bronze” among themselves.
