With their 5 point advantage in the league table, Viitorul fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Dinamo Bucureşti.
Viitorul and Dinamo Bucureşti should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Viitorul form and stats
Viitorul have played 5 Liga 1 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-3-1 (wins-draws-losses). Two draws in a row at home now for Viitorul.
It's back home for Viitorul, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating CSM Iaşi away with the result 1-0. Alin Dobrosavlevici found the net in that victory. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Arges that ended 2-2.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Viitorul have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found four matches with the results: Won two, drawn one and lost one.
The Viitorul fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 9 goals in 5 league matches. Viitorul have conceded 9 from these games.
Dinamo Bucureşti form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Liga 1 travels is 1 win, 0 draws and 3 defeats. With the Bucureşti losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Bucureşti are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.
A. Nemec was the last player to score for the away team. Bucureşti haven't scored a league goal in the last 228 minutes.
Dinamo Bucureşti lost away at Sepsi (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A 0-1 loss hosting Universitatea Craiova before that.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Dinamo Bucureşti playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were three Bucureşti wins, one draw and three defeats.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Dinamo Bucureşti have scored 5 goals in 4 league games away. Bucureşti struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 7 goals conceded from these games.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Viitorul four wins, two draws and Dinamo Bucureşti four victories. As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
