**Early-season results in the 2026-27 SuperLiga have placed promoted sides Csíkszereda Miercurea Ciuc and FC Voluntari at the foot of the table after nine or ten rounds, with Csíkszereda earning just one point and conceding heavily.** Voluntari’s leaky defense and limited attacking output have similarly positioned them in the lower play-out group. Preseason models highlighted these three promoted clubs—alongside Sepsi OSK—as facing the steepest survival odds due to squad depth and adaptation challenges against established sides like Rapid București, CS U Craiova, and Dinamo. The split-format structure, with points halved entering the nine-match play-out and direct relegation for the bottom two, amplifies the importance of avoiding the lower half before the winter break. Recent fixtures and goal-difference trends have reinforced trader focus on these clubs’ realistic paths to the relegation zone or play-off.
