CSM’s players Cristina
Neagu and Amanda Kurtovic, who are injured, will not recover in time for
Saturday’s match. Neagu’s absence in recent matches has been felt by the team.
Since she got injured last December during the European Championship in France,
CSM have only won two Champions League matches, so they now rank fourth in Main
Round Group 2. To make it to the Final 4, CSM will thus have to face the French
side Metz Handball, who have won the Main Round Group 1 after a series of
outstanding matches.

CMS are not
doing very well in the domestic championship, either, and they might well lose
the title this year. They are now second in the National League standing, three
points behind SCM Ramnicu Valcea. However, CSM have played 19 matches and
Ramnicu Valcea 20. In head-to-head matches, the wins are evenly split: Ramnicu
Valcea won 22 to 19 in Bucharest in October, while CSM won 30 to 29 in Ramnic
in March.
