Match Preview
FCSB will host Otelul at the Arena Naţională in Bucharest on Saturday, 27 September, with both teams looking to improve their standings in Liga 1. FCSB comes into the match with a mixed bag of results, having drawn twice before securing a win in their last outing. Their home form is generally strong, with a historical advantage over Otelul, winning seven of their last ten encounters. The head-to-head record suggests FCSB has a psychological edge, particularly at home, where they have not lost to Otelul in recent years.
On the other hand, Otelul has struggled for consistency, managing only one win in their last five matches. Their defensive frailties have been evident, contributing to five matches where both teams found the net in their last ten meetings against FCSB. This could be a crucial factor, as FCSB will look to exploit any gaps in Otelul's backline. With the stakes high for both sides, expect an intriguing clash that could see FCSB capitalise on their home advantage while Otelul will aim to disrupt their rhythm.
