CSM Iaşi form and stats

Last season, CSM Iaşi's league statistics were 7 wins, 4 draws and 19 losses, resulting in a 16th position in the Liga 1. Over these 30 matches they scored 29 goals and conceded 64. Playing at home last season CSM Iaşi managed 4-2-9 (win-draw-lost) with 14 goals and 27 conceded. It's been an uphill battle for Iaşi in their home games for quite some time now, as four matches in a row are lost here. Not since the Hermannstadt game have they avoided the disappointment of defeat.

Iaşi are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus Petrolul 52.

A Liga 1 defeat was the result before that one, 2-4 away at Gaz Metan Medias.
