U Craiova 1948 vs Unirea Ungheni Betting Tips - Under 2.5 Goals
A tight contest seems likely when U Craiova 1948 takes on Unirea Ungheni în a Liga II contest this week.
Hosts U Craiova, currently eighth in the division have tallied up eight points from five games played this season. However, the hosts have failed to win their last three matches, being held to draws in league matches against 1599 Şelimbăr and CSA Steaua Bucureşti while also being dumped out of the Romanian Cup following a penalty shoot out defeat against Unirea Alba Iulia.
Low-scoring outcomes have been frequent for U Craiova, with six of seven games played this season seeing under 2.5 goals scored.
Unirea Ungheni make the trip to Complex Sportiv Craiova after being held to a goalless draw in their last league contest at 1599 Şelimbăr earlier this month.
Since their promotion to the Romanian second tier, the visitors remain winless in four matches, with only two points collected. Eusebiu Tudor´s side failed to score in all four fixtures with their only points coming from goalless draws against the aforementioned 1599 Şelimbăr and Mioveni.
With the hosts seeing an average of less than two goals scored in their five league fixtures played this season, and Unirea still in search of a first goal, a low-scoring outcome has to be expected.
As such, I´ll put my money on less than three goals scored, with the hosts likely to edge their way to a narrow home victory.
U Craiova 1948 team news
Craiova boss Marius Croitoru is likely to retain faith in the same selection that claimed a hard-earned point at CSA Steaua Bucureşti ten days ago. Nigerian forward Jibril Ibrahim and Sékou Sidibé are likely to lead the hosts forward line.
