ROMANIA - SLOVAKIA : PREDICTIONS

Two sides who have struggled to meet their own high standards over the past few years meet at National Stadium in Bucharest, its Romania v Slovakia in International friendly.

Romania have been in the doldrums over the past few years, struggling to maintain the high standards the side made in the 90’s and early 2000’s. The current side is an inexperienced one with only a few major names. The side has very few top level players which is something Romanian sides of the past always had. Striker Adrian Mutu is on the wane and captain Razvan Rat is coming to the end of his playing days. The second highest scorer in the squad Ciprian Marica does not even have a team showing how far things have fallen. Over the last year Romania have played 10 games and have 6 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats. Goals have been plentiful in these games with 22 scored and 17 conceded for a massive game average of 3.90. Top scorers over the last year with 5 are Marica and midfielder Gabriel Torje. FIFA Rankings give Romania a placing of 33 with 732 points.

Slovakia are a well balanced side and have a lot of experience. The side has few real top class players but does boast attacker Marek Hamsik and strong defenser Martin Skrtel. Slovakia have a real lack of quality upfront with veteran duo Sestak and Jakubko complimented by three forwards with just 3 games between them. Over the last 12 months they have managed 3 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats.  The strength of opposition has been low too so a bad period for Slovakia. Only decent sides faced have been Czech Rep. (Lost 3-0)  Belgium (Lost 2-1) and Sweden (drew 0-0); Top scorer over this period has been Jakubko with 3 goals. Slovakia are ranked by FIFA at 62 with 542 points.

ROMANIA - SLOVAKIA : BETTING TIPS

Romania have a hold over Slovakia and have never lost a game to them in any competition. Since their entry into UEFA Slovakia have faced Romania 7 times with 4 losses and 3 draws. I expect this run to continue and take Romania at 2.00 with Bet365. Romania are in far better form than Slovakia and with the visitors struggling against any mid-level team or better this looks like another defeat.
