- UTA Arad have won 3 and lost 2 in their last 5 games.
- FC Farul Constanta are winless in 2 away games, drawing 1 and losing 1.
UTA can hold the advantage in a lively clash
There’s a huge prize at stake for both of these sides in the Liga I playout 2025-2026. FC UTA sit second with 31 points from 5 games, while FC Farul are seventh with 23 points from the same amount of games. UTA have been very strong at home, winning all 3 of their games, and should have the edge against an out-of-sorts Farul.
This FC UTA Arad vs FC Farul Constanta preview could be seen as a chess match between two of the shrewdest tactical coaches in the division. Adrian Mihalcea has made his UTA side very compact and disciplined since taking over in June 2025 and the team thrives on transition play from a 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 shape where they are very solid defensively and build up with control. Ianis Zicu has instilled a very different philosophy on Farul since taking over early in June 2025, where high tempo and possession football with a 4-3-3 is the order of the day, with lots of attacking focus on the wide areas and a high-press from the front.
This FC UTA Arad vs FC Farul Constanta prediction should be a really good game, but UTA are favourites here at 2.07 for a reason and that’s because they are the form side and a more solid defensive unit. Farul are on a 3-game losing streak and have lost 3 of their last 5 overall (W1, D1). Our FC UTA Arad vs FC Farul Constanta prediction is based on UTA's recent form, as they have won 3 and lost 2 of their last 5 and have won all 3 of their recent home games. UTA have conceded just 4 goals in 3 games at home and have conceded an average of 1.33 goals per game at home in this competition. Farul have scored just 0.5 goals per-game on average away from home and conceded 1.0.
Go for goals at both ends
Both teams to score is 1.71 for this and looks a good bet here with both teams strong in attack but with enough weaknesses in defence for the opposition to get at them. For those looking for FC UTA Arad vs FC Farul Constanta betting tips, UTA are likely to have enough about them to win this, however, so the main selection will be for a home win.
Over 2.5 goals at 1.88 is also very tempting as Zicu’s team will come here and press aggressively and try to dominate the ball, while UTA will counter well. The last 5 head-to-head games are 2 wins for UTA, 1 for Farul and 2 draws, although the most recent meeting finished 1-1 at Farul’s ground in Liga I 2025/2026.
Dmytro Pospelov has hit 3 goals in his last 3 games for UTA in this competition and is their biggest threat. Alexandru Isfan leads the goals charts for Farul with 1 in 5.
