Popesti Leordeni vs CS Blejoi tips and predictions

Popesti Leordeni not guaranteed to outclass CS Blejoi

The short price for Popesti Leordeni renders them unbackable. CS Blejoi don't look likely get the job done but they might keep the hosts honest. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to get carried away with.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Establishing something of a fortress at home, Popesti Leordeni have conceded only 1 goal in their last 5 matches and CS Blejoi have been impressive defensively on the road. These players have only let in an average of 0.7 goals per game over their last 3 matches away from home.

Most observers believe that neither side will keep a clean sheet during this match despite the favouritism for Popesti Leordeni. However, the odds-against for the BTTS No looks slightly more tempting this time around.

Popesti Leordeni have drawn 7 of their last 16 matches. Also CS Blejoi have drawn 6 of their last 16 away games. It's not a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to be nervous about but the draw warrants consideration. Stalemate is the pick after what looks set to be a low-scoring affair.
