Predictions for 17 February 2020

Romania Liga 1

Hermannstadt – Astra, Asian Handicap +0.25 Astra, Stake 6/10, odd 1.86 at Betfair (2-2 HALF WIN)

PREVIEW: Having 3 points less from a Federation decision, Astra is forced to win 2 games before picking the last play off/out contenders. They are currently on 5th position with 40 points, 9 less than the leaders CFR Cluj. Astra’s target has been first 2 places, but after 2 surprising defeats in the last 2 games, they’re not even sure of participating in Championship group. A win tonight will make their last 2 games easier. Otherwise, they have a huge chance to lose the spot, given Viitorul is having 2 easy games.

Hermannstadt is currently on 10th position and guaranteed a play out spot, no matter what they do. They’re 3 points over the last relegating team, but the important game are yet to come, because in play out all teams will start with half of their current point numbers.

Coletscu Sebastian is tonight’s referee and I expect a lot of tough play and lot of cards, because where Coletscu is, a lot of cards are shown. No important missing for either team and AH +0.25 Astra seems the only logical bet here. Good luck to followers!
