Romania confirmed their elimination following their narrow 2-1 loss to Spain over the weekend.

Spain made them pay, with Mikel Jauregizar and Roberto Jaen scoring late goals to help their nation turn the game around.
Slovakia, meanwhile, fell to a 1-0 defeat to Italy. Cesare Casadei's seventh-minute strike proved to be the difference between the two sides.
The respective defeats left both sides at the foot of Group A, each yet to register ther first points on the board.

Romania U21 vs Slovakia U21 Prediction
Romania led Spain with just six minutes left on the clock but Daniel Pancu would have been disappointed to see his side lose by a one-goal deficit for the second time running. Four of their last five games have seen one side fail to find the back of the net.
Slovakia came into the tournament in poor form, failing to win any of their five pre-tournament friendlies. Their two losses in this tournament extended that run and means they cannot match their exploits that saw them make it to the semifinal.
We are backing the two sides to cancel each other out in a low-scoring stalemate.
