On Thursday, starting at 15:30, Ripensia – Chindia, from the 29th round of the Romanian 2nd League, 2018-2019, will be played.
Chindia won all three direct disputes with an 8-5 goal. In the tour, the Targovists were forced to score 4-2.
Coach Alexandru Pelici “transformed” Ripensia Timisoara, managing to lose only 3 matches out of the 13 in which he led the Timisoara. The former champion of Romania managed to distance himself to 6 points, the platoon of teams that will be retrograde in the third saloon. Pelici has “repaired” and Ripensia’s goal, and the Timisoara team can think of the fight for promotion in Liga 1 in the next season, if acquisitions will be made.
Chindia Targoviste was in pole position for the title of the second league champion, but Viorel Moldovan’s band surprisingly lost the confrontation from Constanta with the Lighthouse, reaching 4 points away from Academica Clinceni leader. “Blue Roses” have achieved 8 successes in their trips, but the confrontation in Timisoara is difficult. Chindia received 11 goals on the external field, just like U Cluj, but under Clinceni (10 goals).
Pelic’s style will produce empty chances for the hosts, and this confrontation can block guests from their promotion to League One.
PREDICTION: Chindia Targoviste to win @ 1.70
