A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The CS Constantine fans are optimistic that the difference between 5th and NC Magra's 15th place in the table will show on the pitch.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting NC Magra have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 0-1-4 (win-draw-loss) from five matches.
