Based on Sepsi previous results, it is clear that the results in the cup are not important for the visitors, and the team is going to bet on their performance in the championship. The hosts have already managed to win one cup and still have a chance to rise to the top of their group. We believe that this match will end with a victory for Otelul.
Our prediction is a victory for Otelul at 1.62
Bet on total
Teams will likely be using rotation heavily, so players who are not in the starting lineup should get playing time. Substitutes will be trying to prove themselves, especially in attacking actions, so there should be no shortage of scoring chances.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals for 1.98
Bet on corners
In two of the last three head-to-head matches, the teams have taken more than 10 corners between them. Given these statistics, it is quite logical to bet that they will take nine corners between them in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is total over 8.5 corners for 1.65
