Oţelul Galaţi

LWDLWL

Oţelul Galaţi will be looking for an improved result here following the 1-0 Liga I defeat in their last game at the hands of Steaua Bucharest.

In that match, Oţelul Galaţi had 46% possession and 17 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. FCSB got 15 attempts at goal with 4 on target. Florin Tănase (48') was the scorer for Steaua Bucharest.

It’s been all too rare in recent times that Oţelul Galaţi have kept a clean sheet. It will be a concern for them that Oţelul Galaţi have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 6 goals during that time. We will have to find out if that trend will end up being sustained in this game.

Metaloglobus

Following on from a loss in their previous game against Botoșani in Liga I competition, Metaloglobus will be aiming to make amends here.

In that game, Metaloglobus had 47% possession and 5 shots at goal with 2 of them on target. On the other side, Botoșani got 20 attempts at goal with 6 of them on target. Zoran Mitrov (27') and George Cîmpanu (64') scored for Botoșani.

Metaloglobus have been a threat going forward of late, scoring 6 goals in their previous 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that Metaloglobus have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 6 of those same games.

Thanks to a fully healthy group available to choose from, the Metaloglobus boss doesn’t have any fitness worries whatsoever before this game.

We’re of the thinking that Metaloglobus will likely elect for a 4-4-2 formation, going with Cristian Nedelcovici, Christ Kouadio, Cosmin Achim, Omar Pasagic, Alexandru Irimia, Damia Sabater, Desley Ubbink, Yassine Zakir, Benjamin Hadzic, Dragos Huiban and Dragos Huiban.

💡 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Oţelul Galaţi have it within them to convert a lot of goal-scoring opportunities.

However, Metaloglobus could well find it tough finding the net themselves but we do fancy them getting the chances to score, too.

We reckon that it will be a comfortable 3-1 winning score for Oţelul Galaţi after 90 minutes.
