Competition: Romania Liga 1
Date: sø 03.november
Match begins: 15:30 (UTC)
Venue: Stadionul Anghel Iordanescu (4600 seats)

Voluntari hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 7 points and a 14th position in the Liga 1 table. Visiting Botosani holds 8th place with 19 pts.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Romania Cup. That game was also an away game, at Academica Clinceni. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
