FCSB prepares to host Corvinul Hunedoara in round 15 of the SuperLiga on Saturday at 20:30 amid significant squad issues. Head coach Laurențiu Reghecampf confirmed that the team cannot count on four players for the fixture, citing both injuries and suspensions that affect selection options.

Reghecampf specified that Cisotti and Garita are injured, while Valentin Crețu and Ricardo Pădurariu are suspended. The coach noted Cisotti has suffered a tear and will be sidelined for three to four weeks, potentially longer depending on his response to treatment. Reghecampf described Cisotti as a decisive player capable of changing games, acknowledging the unfortunate timing of the injury.

Addressing the roster gaps, Reghecampf stated the staff must identify solutions, particularly for the mandatory under-21 position, before the match. Despite these challenges, he expressed confidence that the team would find the best available options and perform well in their attempt to secure a victory.

Former FCSB interim coach Eugen Neagoe offered an external assessment, warning that the club risks complicating its league situation if it fails to obtain a positive result. Neagoe emphasized that the encounter will not be easy, noting that Corvinul Hunedoara has nothing to lose, which increases the pressure on FCSB to avoid dropping points.

Reghecampf also highlighted the threat posed by the opposition, describing Corvinul Hunedoara as a well-prepared side that has played together for an extended period. He praised their coach for developing attractive football and insisted FCSB must treat the match with seriousness to avoid difficulties, though he remained unconcerned about his own team's ability to compete.
