Viitorul form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Viitorul so far with only 11 points returning home. The records show 2-5-5 (win-draw-lose). Three has not been a lucky number for Viitorul as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Astra match. Viitorul seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

The attacking players of Viitorul have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 218 minutes.

Viitorul play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-1 to Arges (placed 7th). A 0-1 loss hosting Voluntari before that.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Viitorul as they have only managed to score 10 times from 12 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Viitorul have seen the ball go into their own net 12 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The last H2H meeting was Viitorul - Bucureşti 2-1, played this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Dinamo Bucureşti won four games, one match ended with a draw and Viitorul has five wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / four
