With their 11 point advantage in the league table, Astra fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Dinamo Bucureşti.
- Dinamo Bucureşti is in the worst form (0-1-5)
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.
Astra form and stats
Astra have collected 18 points from their Liga 1 home games so far after 4-6-5. The last three games played by Astra, regardless of arena, have all ended draws. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.
Stress levels are on the rise for Astra's attacking players as they have now played 191 minutes without scoring in a league game. M. Montini was their last goal scorer. Nothing to worry about in defence for Astra, as their goalkeeper David Beniamin Lazar has completely shut out the opponents for 227 minutes in the Liga 1.
A nice win for Astra last time playing, versus Dinamo Bucureşti. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0 with S. Krpić scoring for the victors. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a Liga 1 home game that ended 0-0 versus UTA Arad.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Astra as they are travelling to their away game against Hermannstadt in the Liga 1. That match is four days after this one.
Astra are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 15 games. 18 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Dinamo Bucureşti form and stats
There's been little loot from Dinamo Bucureşti's travels as they have only collected 14 points from 15 away games in the Liga 1. Dinamo Bucureşti only have 4 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 2 draws. Bucureşti are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the UTA Arad fixture. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Bucureşti have lost on their last two travels.
Dinamo Bucureşti are travelling again after losing away to Astra in their previous match (0-1). Preceding that, the 1-3 home loss versus Academica Clinceni.
A quick return to home after this game, as Bucureşti are hosting UTA Arad in the Liga 1 only four days away.
The visitors have scored 12 goals from 15 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Bucureşti have seen the ball go into their own net 20 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
