Match description
CS U Craiova has a clear offensive edge over the last five matches — scoring 11 goals (2.2 per match) while conceding only 2 (0.4 per match), whereas UTA Arad scored just 3 goals in that period (0.6 per match) and also conceded 2 (0.4 per match). The hosts remain unbeaten in their last five fixtures (3 wins, 2 draws), while the visitors have a 2-2-1 record, translating to 2.2 points per game for Craiova versus 1.6 PPG for UTA. The 11:3 difference in goals scored and the higher PPG (2.2 vs 1.6) indicate the hosts’ key advantage is attacking efficiency, while defensively both teams have conceded 2 goals in the last 5. On that basis I give CS U Craiova the better chance of winning, although a draw (25%) is plausible given the relatively low number of goals conceded by both sides.
