Struggling Argeş will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying CFR Cluj in the upcoming league round. It’s 14th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
The visiting CFR Cluj played their last game only three days ago, a Europa League match. That game was also an away game, at Roma. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Argeş form and stats
The story so far in the Liga 1 for Argeş at their home stadium (Stadionul Municipal Nicolae Dobrin) is 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. Two home wins in a row for Argeş bring valid hopes of a third.
The Argeş supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Voluntari in Liga 1 and win 2-1. Preceding that game was the away draw at Viitorul that finished 2-2.
Argeş are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 5 games. On the other hand, Argeş have conceded 7 goals.
CFR Cluj form and stats
As the visiting team in Liga 1 matches, CFR Cluj have produced an overall stat of 3-1-0 so far.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Cluj, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-5 versus Roma. A loss against Gaz Metan Medias was the result prior to that, in a Liga 1 home game.
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Roma was particularly ugly (0-5). The humiliation is still top of mind.
CFR Cluj are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 6 times in 4 away games so far. Cluj's manager D. Petrescu has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 2 conceded goals. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
