The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. FCSB are in the 6th position while the guests worry at 10th.

FCSB form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what FCSB, who have the most conceded goals (12) at home in Liga 1, have to build on here at National Arena in the Liga 1. FCSB have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

A good away victory last time out for FCSB, who won 4-0 against Hermannstadt (placed 12th). In the preceding match a 2-1 victory visiting Chindia Târgovişte.

As mentioned above, FCSB "killed" Hermannstadt in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

FCSB are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 9 goals in 7 attempts. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the FCSB defense is not exactly impregnable. 12 goals conceded from 7 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
