FCM Targu Mures vs. Otelul Galati
Not a good round for betting in Romania in my opinion, but I'll try just becuz I'm tempted by the odds.
Both teams are on a very bad run of form, Targu Mures winning one game in 13 official ones, while Otelul Galati won once in 9 official games.
Otelul played Champions League during midweek and lost 0:2 to Manchester United, but althought they lost, they played formidable. I would have expected a hard beating by Manchester, but Otelul managed to go with a 0:0 at half time and lost in second half due to two penalty kicks transformed by Rooney. Surprisngly they weren't scared to take their chance and they attacked manchester's goal from the beginning of the round and had couple of chances in which they could have scored. They have players capable to score up front in Antal and Pena but they need the attitude from whole team to be able to put the ball past the goal. Otelul doesn't have any serious squad problems for today and are on a good morale after the game against Manchester and are coming to Targu Mures to go home with three points after such a dark period of results.
Targu Mures is in bad shape, even worse than Otelul, and a team which at the beginning of the season aimed for an European spot is now aiming to survive in League 1. Main problem for today is the decimated squad they got, coach being able to form a starting squad but not having options on the bench. At least 12 players are expected to miss for Targu Mures, many of which are players from the main team and will definitely be missed. Astafei, Vasilache, D.Matei, Ghionea, Celsinho, Cavalli are all injured, Szilagy, Ilyeş, Subotić are suspended while I.Ba, Mohammed and Topic are doubtful. I've watched them playing last rounds and they don't shine and don't show any signs of catching up points on teh table too soon. After leading 1:0 against Sportul they were equalized and almost lost against a mediocre side. Against U Cluj they were dominated most of the game but managed to equalize with a lucky corner in minute 90+, result which they definitely didn't deserve.
I think the number of missings for Targu Mures will have a huge impact on the game, the mixed players not being all fully gelled together. Otelul is definitely not a team to fully back it, and if it wasn't for the performance against Manchester United in midweek, I would have probably skipped it. But they showed attitude, they showed they still have that shinning sparkle from last season when they won the championship, and after 9 games with only one win I'll try and back them to get a positive result today. It's probably the most perfect occasion for them to get three points. Away win is priced at 2,50 but for safety you can get Otelul draw no bet @ 1,66 which is still good considering the facts for this game. Good luck all!
