Romania will be hoping for a repeat of their last result, following a 1-5 WC Qualifiers - Europe triumph against San Marino.
In that match, Romania managed 75% possession and 18 attempts at goal with 8 of them on target. For Romania, the goals were scored by Mihai Popescu (44'), Răzvan Marin (55'), Ianis Hagi (75') and Denis Alibec (94'). On the other side, San Marino had 1 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. Michele Cevoli (6' Own goal) and Samuele Zannoni (67') scored for San Marino.
Their more recent scorelines show that it has been a great time for the Romania rearguard. Romania have kept it tight, seeing the number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper during their previous 6 outings standing at 4. That sort of trend isn’t assured to be carried forward into this next game, though.
Cyprus
