📊 Form Guide

Hermannstadt

DLDLLW

Hermannstadt, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 0-1 Liga I triumph against Rapid Bucharest.

Hermannstadt have not been in good attacking form in more recent games. Their ‘goals for’ figure equals just 3 versus opposition teams during their previous six fixtures. In those meetings, Hermannstadt have also seen the tally of goals that have gone against them total 6.

FC U Craiova

WWWWDW 📈

FC U Craiova will come into the encounter following a 1-0 Liga I win to beat Botoșani in their previous match.

The only player to score from FC U Craiova was George Ganea (45').

A series of hard-working displays by the FC U Craiova defensive unit has resulted in the number of goals they’ve conceded standing at 3 from their previous 6 outings combined. Over that same period of time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves is 12. We will have to see whether or not that trend will be sustained into this next match.

🤜🤛 Head to head

The previous league meeting between the two was Liga I match day 15 on 22/10/2022 when it finished FC U Craiova 1-1 Hermannstadt.

📋 Team News: Hermannstadt

The Hermannstadt boss Eugen Neagoe will be grateful to have no fitness concerns to speak of before this game owing to a fully injury-free group available to choose from.

It’s our opinion that Sibienii look set to make use of the 4-2-3-1 system for this one, handing starts to Karlo Letica, Mihai Butean, Florin Bejan, Ionut Stoica, Raul Oprut, Ciprian Biceanu, Sota Mino, Silviu Balaure, Vesel Limaj, Calin Popescu and Daniel Paraschiv.

ℹ️ Team News: FC U Craiova

In an otherwise healthy group, there’s just a single fitness issue for the FC U Craiova gaffer Adrian Mutu to be concerned about. Alexandru Voda (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) misses out for this game. The players ineligible for this match because of suspension are Alexandru Voda, Gabriel Enache, Marius Ciobanu-Vanghele and Catalin Albu.

We reckon that Studenții seem likely to utilise a 4-2-3-1 lineup with a starting lineup of Ion-Cristian Gurau, Radu Negru, Andre Duarte, Danny Henriques, Jeremy Huyghebaert, Vlad Achim, Constantin Albu, Yassine Bahassa, Juan Bauza, William Baeten and George Ganea.

⚡ Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that Hermannstadt will need things to go their way to find the net against this FC U Craiova lineup who should score & stay on top.

We therefore fancy a highly competitive game with a 0-1 winning margin for FC U Craiova at the end of this game.

A close call.
