It's still early in the 3. Liga: Series 2 season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the Făurei - CSM Bacău preview!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Făurei form and stats
CSM Bacău form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the 3. Liga: Series 2 ended in defeat. Last season CSM Bacău had these away match statistics: Played 8; won 0, drew 2 and lost 6. Bitter travels for Bacău as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Botosani II match.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Romania Cup home defeat versus Ceahlaul Piatra Neamt with 0-4 on the scoreboard.
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Ceahlaul Piatra Neamt was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind. Bacău did not look prepared in the first half against Ceahlaul Piatra Neamt and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one.
CSM Bacău have the goal stats of 0-2 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
