Dinamo Bucureşti form and stats

Dinamo Bucureşti must be fairly happy with 6 points from their first three Liga 1 games here at Stadionul Ştefan cel Mare. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Dinamo Bucureşti to get some points in this home game.

Stress levels are on the rise for Bucureşti's attacking players as they have now played 270 minutes without scoring in a league game. D. Sorescu was their last goal scorer.

Bucureşti are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-3 away versus SSC Farul.

Before that game, the home loss against Mioveni with the scoreline 0-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (6 in 3 games), Dinamo Bucureşti's attacking play is working. Bucureşti have conceded 4 in these home matches.
