Farul will be looking to record three consecutive wins for the first time this season when they play host to Rapid Bucuresti on Monday evening.
The hosts had a difficult start to 2025, failing to win their first three games of the calendar year (two defeats and a draw). Gheorghe Hagi's side have responded well with two wins from their last three games and also kept two clean sheets in the process.
Rapid Bucuresti meanwhile have lost just two of their eight games in 2025. Including last week's 1-0 win over Botosani, the visitors have kept three clean sheets and also scored in all eight of their matches this year. However, Marius Șumudică's men will be worried by the fact that two of the three games they have failed to win so far this year were on the road.
Farul Constanta vs Rapid Bucuresti Betting Tips: Both teams to score
Farul may have kept a clean sheet in their last two outings, but they have largely struggled defensively this season, especially at home. The hosts finished just one of their last eleven home matches without conceding and bets on BTTS - yes won in all but two of those matches.
Rapid Bucuresti are also struggling defensively at the moment, especially on the road, with the visitors keeping just one clean sheet in their last five games away from the Giulești.
Another reason to expect goals is that recent meetings between Farul Constanta and Rapid Bucuresti were very entertaining. Each of the last two produced four or more goals, whilst both teams scored in six of the last eight encounters.
