Trying to decrease the distance up to the top teams is the task when these mid-table teams fight it out. Both are targeting to strenghten their league status, Ripensia Timişoara in 12th and CSM Iaşi in 10th spot.
- Ripensia Timişoara have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- CSM Iaşi have scored at least twice as many goals away as Ripensia Timişoara have scored home.
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.
