We said: Cyprus 0-2 Romania

Romania have made an impressive start to life under Lucescu, albeit against opposition that they were expected to beat, and they will be regarded as favourites to come out on top once again this weekend. Cyprus have struggled defensively for some time, keeping just two clean sheets in their last 19 international matches, and it is difficult to envisage the hosts keeping the Tricolour quiet in front of goal on this occasion.
