Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Filiaşi & Şirineaşa face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Romania Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
These are full days for the hometeam, as they were in action only three days ago in the 3. Liga; Series 6. Thankfully the previous game, versus Vedita Colonesti, was also a home game. The away team is better rested.
Filiaşi form and stats
Filiaşi participated in Romania Cup the last season, where they reached the 4th round.Filiaşi has won so many consecutive home games (six in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here. We remember; it was Alexandria.
A nice win for Filiaşi last time playing, versus Vedita Colonesti. That was also a home game and the match ended 4-0. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Filiaşi played a great game against Vedita Colonesti and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.
