Gaz Metan Mediaş form and stats
Gaz Metan Mediaş's results here at Stadionul Municipal Gaz Metan in the Liga 1 have been very modest with 2 victories, 1 draw and 4 defeats.
Mediaş's previous game was a Liga 1 match also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Viitorul (placed 8th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Heartbreak before that as Mediaş lost 0-3 at Astra's place.
Mediaş has scored 8 league goals at home this season, in 7 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.
Voluntari form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Voluntari so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-4 (win-draw-lose).
Voluntari has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Botosani for a Liga 1 game that ended a draw (1-1). A loss against Chindia Targoviste was the result prior to that, in a home game.
As mentioned above, Voluntari drew the match against Botosani. Manager M. Teja brought on Răzvan Grădinaru to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.
Voluntari are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 8 away goals from 7 games (in the league). Voluntari's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 13 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
The teams have played each other before this season, with the result Voluntari - Gaz Metan Mediaş 2-1 entered in the official records.
