UTA vs. Steaua
Most people who follow soccer also follow Champ. League, so also know that Steaua lost against Slavia Prague during the mid-week.Slavia was the favorite and with the problems the Romanian side had, Slavia took at 3 pct. I saw the match i have to say that the team that dominated the match was Steaua, as did Ajax when they played against Slavia, but the Czech side proved again that good organization with hard work and a little bit of luck can bring any team great results. Steaua's head couch, former Romanian legend "Hagi" resigned after the match.The papers here in Romania wrote a lot about how Hagi wasn't left alone to make the teams as he thought best and how Steaua's owner always wanted to intervene when deciding the starting 11. About UTA i wrote a lot in other previews and we even made some money with their home wins.It's known that they play well at home. But today they face Steaua.Even if they are seemingly in a bad form Steaua still remains a strong team. My money here is on a Steaua win.They haven't won a match in Liga I for 3 rounds and now with the problems that seem to be at the team a win is just what they need.Steaua can't go too many match with no win.Also Steaua has the more talented players and are more than capable to get all 3 points.I suggest a medium stake.(the odds around 1.65 aren't that bad)
Pick: Steaua win
Odds: 1.72 @ 188Bet

Dacia Mioveni vs. Poli Timisoara
Poli Timisoara have managed to have a better start of the season than in the last years.Still, if they want a european cup position they will have to work on one essential thing, and that is their away record.So, far they have a 1-1-1 away record.But i have to say here that all away match were against very strong teams.The first was against CFR ( a title contender ), the second against Unirea ( one of the teams that perform wonderfully at home ) and the last away match was against UTA (UTA play well at home, and also are the main enemy of Poli, the match between the two being a derby). So, this match against Mioveni is the first accessible away win they can take.But i would suggest punter to be careful here, as Poli aren't the team to have a lot of consecutive wins.They now have 2.This would be the 3rd. Mioveni is a newly promoted team, and so far showed that they create problems and play some good soccer when they play at home. The thing here is that Poli is a team where a lots of money are invested each season but the results aren't that great.Well, this season they have a better couch and better results are expected.But in my opinion, they have to pass an exam today and prove they are capable of winning away matches and not losing important points in front of the weaker and less experienced teams of the league. My pick here is AH Poli Tim. 0 or Poli Tim - draw no bet,practically it the same thing . I saw odds as high at 1.57, and i am pleased with them.
Pick: Poli Timisoara- draw no bet

U. Urziceni vs. Ceahlaul
Last week we had bets on both these teams to win.Urziceni made only a draw, while Ceahlaul confirmed their good form at home and won. Let's look at Urziceni's home record.3-0-0 with 8 goals scored and 3 received.One win is against Steaua.So, they have managed to play very well at home. Now let's take a look at Ceahlaul's away record.0-0-3 with 2 goals scored and 6 conceded. It's clear that the statistics indicate a clear home win.The odds for a Unirea win are somewhere around 1.50, which surprises me as i expected a 1.30 odd with such statistics.But the statistics aren't everything and that why the odds are around 1.50. The thing that worries me here is the fact that Unirea have to crack sometime and i'm a little bit afraid of a surprise. Despite the fact that they won, Ceahlaul did not impress me in the last match. Unirea is a much better team and should win this match but you can never know what to expect.I would go for a straight home win but i want more value in my odds and that why my pick will be U. Urziceni to win at half time.Odds around 2.00.
Pick: U. Urziceni to win at HT
