Romania and Cyprus, scheduled for June 10, 2025, at Arena Națională in Bucharest, presents an intriguing dynamic as both teams vie for crucial points in Group H. Currently, Romania sits in second place with three points, while Cyprus occupies third place but holds a game in hand . Historically, Romania has demonstrated dominance over Cyprus by winning their last five encounters. This historical advantage may play a significant role in the psychological preparations of both teams .
Cyprus is a must. The Tricolours’ fans must be confident of a win here since Mircea Lucescu’s men have not suffered back-to-back defeats since June 2022.
Cyprus travel to Bucharest having conceded 41 goals in the previous 15 H2Hs. Additionally, the visitors have lost eight successive World Cup qualifiers, and that sequence was broken only by a win over lowly Gibraltar in 2017. That led to the Cypriots finishing no higher than fifth out of six in their last three attempts to reach the World Cup.
Romania possible starting lineup:
Moldovan; Ratiu, Popescu, Burca, Bancu; Man, Marin, Chiriches, Tanase; Birligea, Dragus
Cyprus possible starting lineup:
Mall; Satsias, SielIs, Laifis, Pileas; Kastanos, Kypriakou; Loizou, Kosti, Kakoullis; Koutsakos
Dennis Man (2 goals each). Valentin Mihaila and Dennis Man lead in assists (2 each).
