Voluntari hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 20 points and a 14th position in the Liga 1 table. Visiting Sepsi holds 9th place with 33 pts.
The visiting Sepsi played their last game only four days ago, a Romania Cup match.
Voluntari form and stats
Voluntari's results here at Stadionul Anghel Iordanescu in the Liga 1 have been very modest with 2 victories, 2 draws and 9 defeats.
The fans are hoping that Voluntari will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the Liga 1 game against Academica Clinceni. Prior to that, an away loss at Hermannstadt.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Voluntari have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won four, drawn five and lost three.
The manager M. Teja will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to CSM Iaşi in only four days.
Voluntari have scored 10 league goals here from 13 matches, not a lot. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 21 goals have been conceded.
Sepsi form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Liga 1 travels is 2 wins, 8 draws and 3 defeats.
Home advantage was not enough for Sepsi in their previous game, as they lost their Romania Cup-match, hosting FCSB, 0-1. Ahead of that match was the Liga 1 away draw versus Hermannstadt that ended 2-2.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Sepsi playing away and similar expectations, we found seven relevant matches. Results were two Sepsi wins, five draws and zero defeats.
Sepsi have scored 13 goals on their travels this season, from 13 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Sepsi have seen the ball go into their own net 16 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
