FC Botosani will receive on Friday from 4:00 pm on “Municipal” in the prologue of the eighth stage of League 1 the visit of the Clinceni Academic team.
Moldovans come after the first cold shower under the baton of Marius Croitoru, score 1-4 in “Gruia” with CFR Cluj, a result that ended a series of 14 consecutive official games for FC Botosani without defeat in the championship, the series being started in play- out of the first edition of the League 1, 3-0 with Poli Iași on “Municipal”.
The previous failure before the last weekend of the Moldovans in League 1 on April 22, “Pit”, score 0-1 with Dinamo, match that counted for the sixth stage of the play-out League 1 2018-2019 edition.
With 2 victories 4 draws and one defeat, FC Botosani starts at the beginning of the eighth round of League 1 from 6th place with 10 points.
On the other side the Academia Clinceni comes after the first draw obtained in Liga 1 in Giurgiu with Sepsi OSK Sf. Gheorghe from the host position, the group of ilfovenii having a 3-1 victory against Chindia Târgoviște, with the rest of six matches, giving up the remaining six. them up. With 4 points in the standings, the Ilfovians are 13th in equal points with the FCSB “lantern”, but with a higher goal than the vice champion.
It is interesting to see how the Moldovans will react after the first failure suffered in this season, but especially after they were given up lightly this week by two experienced players, Golofca being transferred to CFR Cluj and Pițian being loaned to Chidnia Târgoviște.
The fact is that the Moldovans have shown that they have resources and it is clear that they start with the first chance to confront the Ilfovians. Instead, more concerned about the attack, Croitoru’s team often leaves a lot of space on the defensive and it would not be a surprise if the Ilfovians took advantage of this “gift”.
PREDICTION: FC Botosani to win @ 1,60
