Struggling Dinamo Bucureşti will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Sepsi in the upcoming league round. It’s 11th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
- Dinamo Bucureşti has the fewest dropped points from leading position (2) in Liga 1
- Sepsi has the most points from losing position (12) in Liga 1
The hosts Bucureşti saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Romania Cup. Thankfully the previous game, versus FCSB, was also a home game here at Stadionul Ştefan cel Mare. The away team is better rested.
Dinamo Bucureşti form and stats
Dinamo Bucureşti have collected 12 points from their Liga 1 home games so far after 3-3-5.
Bucureşti are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 261 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by D. Sorescu).
The Bucureşti supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host FCSB in Romania Cup and win 1-0. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Universitatea Craiova (0-1).
Bucureşti are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 12 goals in 11 games. 11 goals have been conceded.
Sepsi form and stats
4-5-1 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Sepsi in their Liga 1 matches away. It's three draws from Sepsi's last three away games, a decent catch but one that could be so much better. Sepsi have had a generous will to share for some time now, running a streak of three draws in a row.
Sepsi's last game was the home draw against CSM Iasi (3-3). Ahead of that game was the 2-2 draw at home against Voluntari.
Drawing 3-3 against CSM Iasi after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 3-1. Their manager L. Grozavu needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. As you can tell from the result, the match against CSM Iasi was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
The schedule is very tough for Sepsi now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Liga 1 game at Arges is waiting in only three days.
Sepsi are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 17 times in 10 away games so far. 11 goals have been conceded by Sepsi in these games.
Head 2 Head
Dinamo Bucureşti and Sepsi have met before this season: Sepsi - Bucureşti 2-0. Last ten meetings between the teams: Bucureşti won four, Sepsi won four and two draws. three games with over 2,5 goals, seven matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
