Mioveni form and stats

There's been little loot from Mioveni's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 9 away games in the Liga 1. Mioveni only have 1 win to counter their 7 defeats and 1 draw. A depressing four defeats in a row for Mioveni in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Sepsi.

Mioveni's previous game was their home loss versus CFR Cluj (0-1).

Before that, the victory at home against Botoşani in the Romania Cup (1-0). You'll want to know how Mioveni managed when outsiders such as today. Our database found 6 similar matches resulting in 0 away wins, 0 draws and 6 home wins.

A quick return to home after this game, as Mioveni are hosting UTA Arad in the Romania Cup only three days away.

Mioveni's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 16 goals from these trips. Mioveni has visited these top teams four times, and 3 of 4 has ended with 2 goals or more!
