Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Dinamo Bucuresti in 9th and CSM Iasi in 8th place.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Dinamo Bucureşti form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Dinamo Stadium as Dinamo Bucureşti have scored 15 goals to get 17 points from 8 games. The overall stats in the Liga 1 are 5-2-1 (wins-draws-losses).

Dinamo Bucureşti manager D. Uhrin and his team return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Academica Clinceni (placed 12th) in the Liga 1. In the match before that, Dinamo Bucureşti hosted CFR Cluj and drew the game 0-0.

Trouble was brewing at the score 0-2 against Academica Clinceni last time out, but a goal from S. Perovic completed a comeback to a draw result for Dinamo Bucureşti.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Dinamo Bucureşti have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found five games) they have won 2 times, drawn 2 and lost 1.

The Dinamo Bucureşti fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 15 goals in 8 league matches. On the other hand, Dinamo Bucureşti have conceded 8 goals.

CSM Iaşi form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for CSM Iaşi so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-4 (win-draw-lose). CSM Iaşi seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

CSM Iaşi's last game was the home draw against Voluntari (2-2). Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Academica Clinceni's place.

CSM Iaşi's last match (vs Voluntari) ended in drama as all points looked lost at the score 0-2. They did not give up, fought back and in the end a courageous finish rescued a draw and a point thanks to a 83rd minute equalizer by A. Cristea.

We have checked recent matches where CSM Iaşi have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those five games were W0-D2-L3.

After this away game CSM Iaşi return home for a Liga 1 game against FCSB. That game is only four sleeps after this.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting CSM Iaşi as they have only managed to score 7 times from 8 away games in the league. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as CSM Iaşi have conceded 13 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
