Astra – Dinamo Buc

Astra Giurgiu and Dinamo Bucharest will square off in the Romanian League Cup quarterfinals. The tie will be played over a single leg, In Giurgiu.

In the domestic league, Dinamo is on the 6th place and Astra is on the 10th place, but both teams are better than their positions show. Dinamo and Astra will both use rotation in this match – Dinamo due to losing many players in the International break, Astra due to the fact that they play in Europa League next week.

Even before the season started, I stated that Dinamo Bucharest will be mostly involved in high scoring matches this year. The reason was new manager Ioan Andone, who is famous for his attacking style, but even more for his inability to properly organize a defensive line. The fact that Dinamo has very poor players at the back was an extra argument. So far, this judgement proved correct, as the stats clearly show.

I posted multiple bets on goals on Dinamo’s matches this season, I feel that the above explanation and the below stats are all that needs to be said regarding my bet on this clash.

Dinamo played 17 matches this season.

• 14 out of 17 Dinamo matches ended with both teams scoring
• 12 out of 17 Dinamo matches ended with over 2,5 goals (average odds around evens)
• Dinamo’s last 6 matches all ended with over 2,5 goals
• Dinamo kept just 2 clean sheets
• Dinamo allowed goals from the worst teams in Liga1 and even from Dinamo II in an epic Cup tie
• There were two Astra – Dinamo meetings this season, which finished 1-4 and 2-2
• The last 4 meetings between Dinamo and Astra all ended with over 3,5 goals

I`ll back goals to happen again in a Dinamo clash. My tip is over 2,5 goals to be scored. I will keep the stakes at a reasonable level due to the fact that it’s the League Cup and the teams will use rotation. Prediction: Astra Giurgiu – Dinamo Bucharest 1-2.
