UTA Arad Universitatea Craiova betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is that both teams will score at least one goal. UTA plays in its best condition, where they are still unbeaten, but their defense has been leaking goals frequently. On the other hand, Universitatea Craiova plays in their worst condition, but their attack has been scoring regularly. It is also worth noting that the "Both teams to score? Yes" market has been successful in four of the last five direct encounters between the teams. Therefore, a bet in this direction seems like a good option.

Preview
UTA and U Craiova meet at Stadionul Motorul, in a match for the 17th round of the Liga I. Universitatea Craiova got a home win by (4‑2), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 20‑07‑2024. The head‑to‑head record at this stadium favours the away team, since in the last 3 head‑to‑heads they won 2 and tied 1. Nevertheless, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Liga I, played on 20‑12‑2023, they tied (2‑2). Raúl Silva (7' Autogolo) and Claudiu Micovschi (3' ) scored for UTA and Nicuşor Bancu (45' ) and Alexandru Mitrita (76' ) for U Craiova. The home/away factor is worth special atention, since although this is a match between 12th and 5th of the league table, it’s also a match between the 9th best team in home matches and the 9th best in away matches.

Analysis UTA

The home team is currently in the 12th position of the league, with 18 points won, after 5 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Dinamo Bucureşti, by (1‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Rapid Bucuresti, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually plays better at home, where they have won 12 points, against only 6 points in away matches. In the last 8 home league matches UTA has a record of 3 wins and 5 draws, so they have won 14 points out of 24 possible.

In their home matches there are a few frequent results: at half‑time 0‑0 (3 out of 8 matches) and after the 90' 1‑1 (4 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. 7 of their last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals, so there is a tendency for few goals in their home matches. In 16 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

UTA is going through a very poor run and suffered another defeat in the last round of the Romanian Superliga, losing 2-0 to Rapid away from home. The team has adopted a 3-5-2 tactical formation, with Andrej Fábry standing out as the main playmaker in midfield. Meanwhile, Valentin Costache and Alexandru Cîmpanu exploit the flanks, positioning themselves in the box to finish the plays created. Goalkeeper Dejan Iliev, centre-back Alexandru Benga, defensive midfielder Cristian Mihai, and right-back Damien Dussaut will all be unavailable for the next match due to injuries.


Confirmed Lineup: Robert Popa, Florent Poulolo, Ravy Tsouka Dozi, Ibrahima Sory Conté, Kouya Mabea, Denis Hrezdac, Cristian Mihai, Andrej Fabry, Jordan Attah Kadiri, Valentin Costache, Eric Johana Omondi.
Coach: L. Balint.
