Politehnica Timisoara return home after three weeks with a game against newly promoted ACS Viitorul Arad, a team they will meet for the first time in any senior competition, but which features some familiar names to the team.

With Bădăuță and Gîrlea I was a teammate at Poli, with Ungureanu I didn’t get the chance, he played for us but after I was no more. It’s a new team in the landscape of League III. I was at their game with Peciu and I noticed, they combine the experience of the older players with the youth of the others and then they form an experienced team, but also young at the same time,” said Cristian Gălan, Politehnicii’s head coach, about the opponent.

We are clearly thinking about the victory, to approach the game just for that, because after all we play at home and this is very important for us. We hope there will be a big crowd at the match and at the end of the match we can enjoy a victory,” added Cristi Gălan.

Poli will certainly not be able to rely on three players for Saturday’s match, besides defenders Radu Ciurel and Cosmin Huminic, on the list of unavailable players is also goalkeeper Octavian Mosoarcă, after the finger injury he suffered in the away match in Periam. “Tavi can’t be included in the calculations, he had his finger immobilized this week, we’ll see next week if we can approach the next game with him”, otherwise “we have no suspensions, everyone is fine, we’ll see at the beginning of the game which 11 we can line up to be the most competitive in this game. I hope it will also be a beautiful game“, said the coach.

The match Politehnica Timisoara – Viitorul Arad will be played on Saturday, October 12, from 15.00, at the “Electrica” stadium, in the seventh round of League 3, Series 9. Before this game, the white-violets are in 5th place with 9 points, while their opponents are in 7th with 7 points. The game will be streamed on the official YouTube channel.
