Match preview

Petrolul Ploiesti welcome Corvinul Hunedoara in round eight of Liga I, with both sides positioned within the top six of the championship group zone. Petrolul sit third on twelve points after four wins and three defeats, having yet to record a single draw this season. At home, they have won two of their three fixtures while conceding only twice.

Corvinul Hunedoara enter the contest in sixth place with ten points, proving exceptionally tough to break down having conceded just four goals in seven league matches.

With Petrolul conceding an average of only 0.7 goals per home game and Corvinul demonstrating a sturdy defensive structure on the road, this encounter shapes up to be a tight, low-margin contest where the home side holds the upper hand to secure at least a point.
