The 3. Liga: Series 5 league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Corona Brasov and Astra II are placed 1st and 2nd respectively.

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!

W W L L L

Corona Brasov form and stats

Corona Brasov have only played one 3. Liga: Series 5 game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 2 wins, 7 draws and 8 defeats from 17 matches.

Corona Brasov has scored 5 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

W L W L L

Astra II form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the 3. Liga: Series 5 ended in defeat. Last season Astra II had these away match statistics: Played 8; won 2, drew 2 and lost 4. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Astra's last three away games as they have all been lost.

As mentioned above, Astra was the only team on the pitch versus Plopeni in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.

It's early days yet, but Astra II has scored 1 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
