On Monday, starting with 18:00, the match Poli Iasi – Viitorul will take place, within the round number 10 of the League 1 play-out.
From an administrative point of view, Poli Iasi is going through an extremely tense period. Adrian Ambrosie has resigned as manager, but will remain on the club’s Board of Directors. We mention the fact that this change came as a result of Ciprian Paraschiv’s request.
“Telenovela Ambrosie” has been the headliner of local publications lately along with suspicions of infecting players with the new Covid: 19. We remind you that the last official match played by Poli Iasi was the one with Dinamo, ended 1-1. In the last days, Cabral complained of specific symptoms, Mircea Rednic being forced to postpone a game training. However, the results of subsequent tests have shown that the right-back, an international defender of the Cape Verde Islands, is not infected. Even in this context, the lack of training can be extremely important in a match of overwhelming importance.
Even in this context, there is no doubt that the people of Iasi will not attack the victory. If the team from Dealul Copoului will not manage to get all the points at stake, Iasi could say goodbye to the first league, the chances of staying in the first echelon will be only theoretical. Therefore, we expect Mircea Rednic to use all his skill and experience in order not to include in his CV a really shameful demotion. In this sense, we have the necessary arguments for which the hosts will play at 101% of capacity.
On the other hand, without any worries about relegation at the end of the season, Viitorul could see … the future of the team! Gheorghe Hagi accustomed us during the previous seasons that in the end of the championships, when things are already established, not to use the best team. Certainly, such an approach would be a real “oxygen mouth” for the Iasi team. The premises exist, as well as the precedents in this respect. This fact cannot again argue a potential positive result for the people of Iasi. He mentioned that if this scenario is not completed, the need for victory by the host team will remain.
Taking into account all the aspects mentioned above, we can’t help but focus on a match in which the hosts will avoid defeat. For safety, we will choose to bet “covered”.
Poli Iasi, 10 consecutive matches without a draw on home soil;
The future, without victory in the previous 3 away games in League 1;
Viitorul has scored in the last 3 matches in Iasi.
Poli Iasi (4-2-3-1): Axinte – Cabral, Klimavicius, Frasinescu, Serban – Horsia, Breeveld – Pasaglia, Gradinaru, Cristea – Luckassen;
Viitorul (4-3-3): Tordai – Dussaut, Mladen, Ghita, Boboc – Ciobanu, Artean, Achim – Matei, Iancu, Rivaldinho.
PREDICTION: Viitorul Constanta to win @ 2,00
