Voluntari Preview – Can Voluntari claim first home win of season?
Well, the hosts will certainly be pushing the envelope if they’re to gain back-to-back wins on Thursday night against their more illustrious opponents, Steaua Bucharest, despite recording a much-needed win last time out in the Romanian top flight with last weekend’s 2-1 win away from home at Academica Clinceni.
That win at Academica ended a miserable sequence of 4 defeats on the trot in Liga 1 as Voluntari slumped to losses against Gaz Metan, Viitorul, Univ. Craiova and CFR Cluj, the latter being a particularly humiliating 4-0 defeat on home turf at their Stadionul Anghel Iordănescu.
Voluntari will be hoping they can put that disappointing defeat last time out at home out of their minds for this upcoming clash against Steaua but the hosts are bottom of the Liga 1 for the very simple reason that they’ve lost their last 7 home matches on the trot.
An overall home record of 0-2-8 5/18 therefore doesn’t bode well for Voluntari here.
Steaua Bucharest Preview – Can FCSB bounce back immediately?
There’s every chance that the visitors can bounce back straight away with a win on Thursday night despite hitting the road as they take on a poor Voluntari outfit who have slumped to 7 defeats on the trot at home, while Steaua Bucharest will be looking to recover from their recent 1-0 defeat away at CFR Cluj on the weekend.
Steaua Bucharest had previously strung together an impressive 4-match winning streak which included victories over Politechnica Iasi, Gaz Metan, Viitorul and Univ. Craiova (with 3 of these 4 wins being against teams that had inflicted defeats upon Voluntari recently).
Form away from home has been excellent despite the loss last time out on their travels as Steaua had won their previous 7 away matches on the trot and possess an away record of 7-1-3 17/9 to date this term.
The bigger picture shows that Steaua have lost just 3 of their last 20 away matches in Liga 1.
