Match description

I back an away win for FCSB (2). The visitors are in better form: in their last 5 matches they scored 10 goals and recorded 3 wins, yielding an average of 2.0 points per match, while Botoşani have 5 goals and only 1 win (0.6 points per match). Seasonally Botoşani concede 0.88 goals per home game and score 1.69, but in their last 5 home fixtures the hosts have conceded as many as 12 goals (2.4 per match), whereas FCSB have conceded 6 goals (1.2 per match) — a significant defensive form gap. Offensively FCSB on the road average 6.47 shots on target and 17.33 attempts with xG 1.92 versus Botoşani at home with 4.81 shots on target, 14.69 attempts and xG 1.63, and the share of matches without scoring is 13% for FCSB versus 25% for the hosts. Considering the advantage in shots on target, xG and points over the last 5 matches, I assign a 55% chance to an FCSB win, 25% to a draw and 20% to a home victory.
