Astra are still fighting to avoid relegation. They are 4 points above the line with 3 matches left and a win here would 99% guarantee their maintanance. The win against CFR Cluj was a great result but need another one here for a more relax end of the season. No important missings and finally Gussev has been left on the bench. Ganea is the top striker and most likely he will get on the scoresheet. Stratila is also a big danger on the right wing with great speed.

    Otelul Galati theoretically still have chances of getting an Europa League place, but it's totally unrealistical. Because of this the players were pretty much uninterested in the Alba-Iulia game but they still managed to win it 1-0. Normally a tough team on the road they allowed both Timisoara and Brasov to score 2 goals in the first 15 mins in their last 2 outtings. But they do have quality up-front in 2 excellent wingers Antal and Ochirosii as well as a good striker Axente and Paraschiv as the playmaker so we can expect them not to go all on defence since also only a win would keep their so called dream alive.

    2 teams chasing after the win for different reasons and the fact that Otelul isn't defensively solid anymore gives a good chance for the both teams to score and makes me have second thoughts about taking under and home win here. Both to score the better choice.
