Mioveni form and stats

Mioveni have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Liga 1 were 8 victories, 6 draws and 2 defeats from 16 fixtures.

Mioveni aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 180 league minutes without a goal. S. Askovski was the last player to find the net.

Mioveni's previous game was their home loss versus Rapid Bucuresti (0-2).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Gaz Metan Medias wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Mioveni playing away, we found two games. Results were two away wins, zero draws and zero home wins.

After this away game Mioveni return home for a Liga 1 game against CFR Cluj. That game is only four sleeps after this.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Mioveni has managed 0 goals and let in 1 from 1 match.

Head 2 Head

As for the last three games between these two teams, there's one Sepsi victory, one draw and one Mioveni win. Over/under statistics; one of these games ended with three goals or more, two matches with two goals or less.
