Only a win will satisfy the Otelul supporters in this Stadionul Oţelul clash with Sportul Chiscani, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the 3. Liga: Series 2 table.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Otelul form and stats
Seven points from three 3. Liga: Series 2 home games is a great start for Otelul, who are hoping to build on that form here at Stadionul Oţelul. In general it's been a long time since Otelul tasted defeat here at Stadionul Oţelul, as they have taken at least one point from their last 14 home games in the league.
Happy days for Otelul in their previous game, a 3. Liga: Series 2 match away at Sporting Lieşti (placed 4th) that ended with a 2-0 victory.
Goals decide football matches and Otelul are scoring many of them at home; 7 on target from 3 league matches. Defensively Otelul have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (1 in 3 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Sportul Chiscani form and stats
Sportul Chiscani, who have the most conceded goals (23) in 3. Liga: Series 2, are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the 3. Liga: Series 2, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses). Chiscani seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Chiscani lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-6 beating and focus on this one.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Chiscani's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 3 matches. The Chiscani manager has some worries about the defense as 7 goals have been conceded in these travels.
