Viitorul form and stats

2-3-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Liga 1 numbers at home for Viitorul so far this season.

No payout for Viitorul in their previous match, an away game at Dinamo Bucureşti that ended in defeat 0-3. Heartbreak before that as Viitorul lost 0-1 at Academica Clinceni's place.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Viitorul have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found one game) they have won one time, drawn zero and lost zero.

A decent goal production from Viitorul in their home games so far, with 11 goals from 6 league matches. Viitorul have conceded 10 from these games.

Hermannstadt form and stats

Hermannstadt, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Liga 1, have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Liga 1, after 1-3-2 (6 played).

Hermannstadt are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at Chindia Targoviste (after extra-time, 4-2 on penalties) (placed 8th). A loss against Astra was the result prior to that, in a Liga 1 home game.

We have checked recent matches where Hermannstadt have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those seven games were two victories, three draws and two defeats.

Hermannstadt are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 6 away goals from 6 games (in the league). Hermannstadt's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 10 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last seven meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Viitorul, one draw and two wins for Hermannstadt. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
