Read more for our predictions.
Otelul finished tenth in the 2025-26 regular season, advancing to the play-outs, where they ended up ninth (W4, D2, L3). Cluj were fourth in the regular season, moving to the play-offs, where they could only finish third.
A 3-1 win over Bacau last weekend in a friendly saw Otelul end their preparations on a high, after drawing 0-0 with Farul Constanta. The Steelworkers also finished last season with three wins and two draws in the relegation group.
Hopes of a better start hinge on continuing their home form, as Otelul have three wins from their last four home league games.
Cluj played five friendlies, ending with a 2-0 loss to Gloria Bistrita, which was their only defeat in the sequence (W2, D2). They ended last season undefeated in seven league games (W3, D4), although the number of draws was a concern.
The Railwaymen were unbeaten in their last three away league trips of the previous campaign (W2, D1) but were beaten 4-1 in this fixture last season.

Our Otelul Galati vs CFR Cluj Prediction
Cluj finished third in the play-off round of the Romanian league last season after ending the regular season in fourth place. Otelul finished outside the top six places, ending tenth in the regular season, and ended ninth in the play-outs. Both clubs will hope for a better result in this season, although recent results have heavily favoured Cluj.
Two of the last three league games between these sides saw both teams score, and that trend could continue in this fixture, so our Otelul Galati vs CFR Cluj prediction is BTTS.
