APWin Prediction

BTTS - Yes

The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Botosani to win the 1st half

Botosani is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts CFR Cluj a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking Botosani to win the first half.

👉 Our prediction is: Botosani win or draw

Our top tip for this match is to bet Botosani to win or draw on the Double Chance market.

While it is tough to go away from home and pick up a positive result like a win or a draw, we have seen through recent form and season statistics that Botosani has what it takes to accomplish that task. And the fact that Botosani only needs to avoid defeat makes it a more achievable result.
