Only a few games have been played in the 3. Liga: Series 3 so far, with Olteniţa placed 8th and Axiopolis sitting in the 3rd position.

Olteniţa form and stats

Olteniţa have played three 3. Liga: Series 3 home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. The Olteniţa manager might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Olteniţa lost their last game at Mostiştea Ulmu (placed 4th) after a 1-6 scoreline.

Olteniţa were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

The Olteniţa fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 3 matches. Olteniţa are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (6 from 3 played).

Axiopolis form and stats

Things could have gone better for Axiopolis in their 3. Liga: Series 3 away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

A new game in only four days for Axiopolis, the Romania Cup home match versus SSC Farul. Busy days.

Axiopolis are scoring goals for fun in their league games away this season, having clocked up more than three goals per game on average (10 goals from 3 away games). There are big problems for the Axiopolis defense as they have conceded 9 goals in 3 away games.
