Head-to-head statistics Craiova - FCSB
Craiova are showing consistent form in the Romanian league
Craiova are having a solid season, sitting third in the league after nine rounds. In their last five matches, they have won three, drawn one and lost one. If European results are excluded, their unbeaten run stretches to six matches.
They are averaging 1.5 goals scored per game and just 0.8 conceded - a reliable defence is one of their strengths. At home the numbers are even better: the club wins consistently on their own ground (8 wins from 9), and the attack regularly produces more than one goal per match. Their position in the table remains meaningful - the gap to first place is small, and a win in the upcoming match would bring them closer to Dinamo Bucharest.
Match Results: Craiova
FCSB made a solid start to the season but then lost their momentum
FCSB have won just three of their nine matches this season, yet they remain on the fringes of the top-six championship group. Their seasonal averages of 1.44 goals scored and 1.33 conceded per game point to a degree of defensive vulnerability alongside moderate attacking output.
Over their last ten matches, the average rises to 1.7 goals scored and 1.6 conceded per game, though consistency of results has been absent. A win over Craiova would be enough to move FCSB into the top six, while dropping points risks pushing them down - potentially outside the top ten.
