Dinamo had a great season last yeat and took first place with no serious problems.They were a strong team then and after this inter-season break i do believe they are even stronger as they brought some very talented players to their squad.They couch in my opinion is the one that made the difference.The came to the team last season and we all saw the results right away.

I think that they are able to obtaine some great results this season as well.At least the preseason matchs indicated so.

Rapid on the other side is having some problems.A few important players along with the couch "Razvan Lucescu" have left the team.In compensation they brought to the team some new players and as couch they brought former CFR Cluj couch "Cristiano Bergodi".But i don't have such a good opinion regarding the changes made this summer at Rapid.The loss of "Badoi" and "Zicu" will have a negative result to the team(Zicu went to Dinamo).Plus goalkeep "Coman" wanted to leave Rapid as he was no satisfied with the conditions and the salary but he didn't get permission from the club management.Also striker "Mugurel Buga" didn't show up for practice for a few weeks after an argument with the club due to the fact that he also didn't get permission to leave the club.

Things don't look very optimistic for Rapid in the season to follow, but these kind of things have a habit of working out and Rapid could surprise everyone and obtaine some impressive results this season.

But for now let's concentrate for this match.Dinamo vs. Rapid.Another imporant fact is that Dinamo's couch "Mircea Rednic" was once Rapid's couch and despite the fact that he was obtaining good results he was kicked out.A thing he will never forget.So, every win against Rapid and most imporant against Rapid's owner "G. Copos" brings him a real satisfaction.

For this match both team will have one extra opponent: the hot weather.Both teams have played their pre-season matches abroad at lower temperatures.And coming back to romania and standing this extreme weather is quite a mission.But both teams will have this problem and i don't think anyone can profit from these conditions.

Taking in consideration most of the fact i'll put some money on a Dinamo win.
