In this Liga 1 showdown, the spotlight will fall on the players who have been pivotal for FC Botosani and Cluj throughout the campaign.

Supporting them are Zoran Mitrov, Andrei Dumiter and Alexandru Cimpanu, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Botosani’s attack.

Meanwhile, Andrei Cordea and Meriton Korenica have been pivotal for Cluj’s attack, crafted under Daniel Pancu’s leadership, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Cluj’s top scorer in Liga 1, Cordea, has eight goals this season, while Munteanu remains their top assist provider in the competition with five. Cluj have also relied on Lindon Emerllahu, Karlo Muhar and Matei Ilie to energize their attack through key shots and passes.
