Botosani are tipped to secure a win over Otelul in their upcoming match, with the main reasoning being Otelul's poor away record, having lost five of their last six trips. Botosani's strong home performances further support this prediction, making them the favoured side for three points on Monday. The selection is based on recent form and home advantage, with no additional qualifications or alternative tips provided.

Little separates these two sides in terms of quality, but Otelul are terrible on the road, while Botosani won half of their games in front of the home crowd. I am backing the hosts to secure important points on Monday. 

Key Stats  


  • Botosani have won 3 of their last 4 home matches (Liga I). 
  • Otelul have lost 5 of their last 6 away matches. 

H2H is Tied 


This is going to be the 14th time these sides lock horns, and the score is tied at 4-4 with 5 draws so far. 

Botosani Solid at Home 


Botosani are having a rough time in the new Liga I season, securing just 14 points in 14 rounds and currently sit in the lower half of the table (13th place). 

A big majority of those points were earned in front of the home crowd, having three wins, two draws and one defeat. After earning three straight wins against Csikszereda 1-0, Sepsi 5-0 and UTA Arad 2-0, they lost to Petrolul 3-1 in late October. 

Botosani locked horns against the reigning champions Universitatea Craiova on the road last weekend and despite a 2-1 loss left a solid impression, Stefan Bodisteanu finding the net. 

Otelul Winless Since August 


Otelul had a rough start to the new season too and quickly sacked Croatian head manager Stjepan Tomas, replacing him with Rui Duarte but things haven't improved at all since his arrival. 

The Galati side returned from the international break with a 1-0 loss to Steaua, followed by a 1-1 home draw against another table struggler Csikszereda and a 4-3 road loss to Farul Constanta. 

Last weekend they hosted Sepsi and barely snatched a point in a 1-1 draw, Nuno Pedro converting a penalty in the 95th minute.  

Team News 


Botosani will most likely be without striker Jovan Markovic who suffered a minor knock. Andrei Dumiter is their top performer this season with seven goals and one assist.

As for the visitors, central-back Ne Lopes has suffered a serious ligament injury and won't be available for a while. Milen Zhelev is also out until December due to meniscus injury, while Andrezinho is doubtful.

Verdict

Otelul are terrible on the road, losing five of their last six trips. Botosani do their best work at home, and I will back them to secure three points on Monday.
