Struggling Voluntari will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying CFR Cluj in the upcoming league round. It's 14th vs 1st and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Voluntari form and stats
With {0 Liga 1 wins}, 2 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Voluntari are certainly not brimming with confidence. All in all it has been a very rough period for Voluntari who hasn’t won a game in their last 15 attempts. Their previous win was against FCSB, 132 days ago. With nine home games in a row without a win, the Voluntari fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Sepsi game long ago, can be stopped today.
Voluntari lost their last game at Universitatea Craiova (placed 3rd) after a 1-2 scoreline. Preceding that match was a defeat to Viitorul (1-2).
Voluntari aren't scoring a lot here at Stadionul Anghel Iordanescu in the league, with only 5 goals from 9 games. Voluntari have conceded 14 from these games.
