CSMS Iasi and Dinamo Bucharest will square off in the 6th round of the Romanian Liga 1 at Copou Stadium, a place where Dinamo failed to win in the four meetings played since CSMS Iasi achieved promotion a few years ago.
CSMS Iasi had a very good season last year, finishing 7th in the standings, but the hosts lost a lot of strength in the summer, when they parted ways with a few of their best players, their manager and some of their executive. Results so far this season have been mediocre, as Iasi is sitting on the 11th place in the standings (out of 14) with 5 points in 5 rounds. On the bright side, the hosts are coming after an excellent 1-1 draw against title contenders FCSB away from home.
Dinamo has 3 wins and 2 losses in 5 rounds, which may be a bit less than what they expected, but thing is Dinamo actually played very well and could have easily won all matches this season. The Red Dogs are on the back of a 1-0 road defeat against league leaders CFR, a match which Dinamo dominated, but some missed chances and a bogus penalty allowed CFR to escape with the win.

Odds on Dinamo to win are dropping for a reason here, as the Red Dogs have played arguably the best football in Romania this season and they were unlucky in both of their losses. CSMS Iasi on the other hand seems like a team that will fight against relegation this year and they were outplayed by every good side they faced (even though they snatched that 1-1 draw at FCSB last round).
Dinamo absolutely needs to win this game after they already lost twice in the first 5 rounds, so this fact coupled with their good level of play makes me believe an away win is very likely.
History is against Dinamo, as they failed to win in the 4 matches they played in Iasi against CSMS, but I don`t think that is relevant – especially as this is a better Dinamo team than in those 4 matches, while CSMS Iasi seems weaker.
The performance Dinamo put in each of the 7 matches played this season in all competitions (or at least 6 of the 7) should be enough to claim a win against Iasi.
I`m betting on Dinamo for the second time in a row here. Hopefully the Red Dogs won`t be as unlucky as in the last round and this will end with the logical result. My tip is Dinamo to win. Prediction: CSMS Iasi – Dinamo Bucharest 0-2.
