Match begins: 18:00 (UTC)
Venue: Stadionul Marin Anastasovici (8500 seats)

Only a few games have been played in the Liga 1 so far, with Astra placed 8th and Viitorul sitting in the 4th position.

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.

It's quite the trip for Viitorul when visiting Astra as the cities are 2200 kilometers apart.

Astra form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Astra's two home games so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Stadionul Marin Anastasovici.

The points were shared in Astra's previous game, also at home. Visiting Viitorul travelled back with a point after a 1-1 scoreline. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Gaz Metan Mediaş.

Early season goal statistics from Astra's 2 home games: 4 goals, 3 conceded.

Viitorul form and stats

Viitorul are still undefeated on their travels. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other. With three draws in a row for Viitorul the feeling in the team is perhaps one of both relief and disappointment. Two points from the last two away games for Viitorul, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.

Viitorul are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at Astra. A draw for Viitorul before that, at their own venue hosting Botoşani (2-2).

It's early days yet, but Viitorul has scored 3 and conceded 2 goals from their travels so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Astra won 2, Viitorul won 6 and 2 draws. 6 games with over 2,5 goals, 4 matches with two goals or less.
