Mioveni form and stats

Mioveni, who have the fewest scored goals (19) in Liga 1, have collected 18 points from their Liga 1 home games so far after 4-6-5. When Mioveni hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Dinamo Bucuresti, U Craiova 1948, Gaz Metan Mediaş, Mioveni and Academica Clinceni), they have won 4 of 4 matches! Mioveni has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager Pelici-Drăghicescu and the players.

No payout for Mioveni in their previous match, an away game at Sepsi that ended in defeat 1-3.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at UTA Arad.

This is expected to be a close game, with Mioveni perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Mioveni as a small favourite), we find eight games. Mioveni has won three of these, drawn three and lost two.

Mioveni aren't scoring a lot here at Stadionul Orăşenesc in the league, with only 10 goals from 15 games. Mioveni are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadionul Orăşenesc in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 14 from 15 matches.
