Dinamo Bucureşti form and stats

With 4 Liga 1 wins, 3 draws and 8 defeats from their home games, Dinamo Bucureşti are certainly not brimming with confidence.

A good away victory last time out for Dinamo Bucureşti, who won 3-2 against Botoşani. Manager Jr. felt very clever after Creţu scored the winning goal against Botoşani, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 27th minute.

Before that game, the 5-1 home victory against Academica Clinceni.

Bucureşti are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 17 goals in 15 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Dinamo Bucureşti defense is not exactly impregnable. 28 goals conceded from 15 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

The followers enjoyed Arad's previous game versus Mioveni, a 1-0 win played at home.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against U Craiova 1948 wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
