  • Concordia Chiajna have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Unirea Dej have scored away.

These are active days for the home side, as they played only four days ago in the Liga 2. That game was an away game at Ripensia Timisoara, so at least Concordia are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Concordia Chiajna form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 0 defeats. That’s what Concordia Chiajna have to build on here at Stadionul Concordia in the Liga 2. Two draws in a row at home now for Concordia Chiajna.

Happy days for Concordia in their previous game, a Liga 2 match away at Ripensia Timisoara (placed 12th) that ended with a 1-0 victory.

Preceding that match was a Romania Cup defeat to Gaz Metan Medias (after extra-time) (0-1).

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 Concordia Chiajna have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won three times, drawn one and lost three.

The Concordia Chiajna fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches. Concordia have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 2 goals.

Unirea Dej form and stats

Unirea Dej are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Liga 2, having played 3 games and collected 4 points (1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss).

Unirea failed to get anything from their last game, a Liga 2 home match vs Petrolul 52 (placed 1st) that ended with defeat 1-3.

Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Astra.

Unirea are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, one draw and three defeats. From a total of four matches.

The visitors have scored 2 goals from 3 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Unirea are tight as a drum on their travels, having allowed the opposition only 1 goal away.
