- CS Concordia Chiajna has had a mixed start to the 2025-26 Liga II season, with two wins, one draw and two defeats in their last five, including a 1-2 home loss to Metalul Buzău last Saturday. This sequence leads us to consider various CS Concordia Chiajna vs AFC Hermannstadt betting tips for their upcoming game.
- Andrei Cristea has his team set up in a 4-2-3-1 system that is designed to control the game’s tempo and build from the midfield pivots while exploiting the width with fullbacks overlapping and a creative No.10.

- Attacking threats:
AFC Hermannstadt (away)
- AFC Hermannstadt are more than a few goals short of what they need to climb out of the SuperLiga relegation zone in the autumn of 2025, with three defeats in October seeing them slip further into trouble with a tally of around 10 points from 12-15 rounds.
- Boss Marius Măldărășanu has been using compact, disciplined systems like 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 to keep his side in contention, but they have had a lean spell in front of goal and Silviu Balaure is sidelined with a ligament injury.
- Sergiu Buș is the best attacking option Hermannstadt have right now, having scored decisive goals in league and cup competitions.

AFC Hermannstadt have a superior head-to-head record against Concordia Chiajna , winning two and drawing one in their last three meetings in all competitions, which could greatly inform our CS Concordia Chiajna vs AFC Hermannstadt betting tips.

Betting Insights
- Căbuz and Capușa will need to hold firm in central defence as Hermannstadt are a long way from the cup final this season and their defence is not entirely solid in their current mood.
- But the odds of 1.98 on the away side are a little short with Concordia Chiajna 3.75 and the draw 3.15, so the away side are clearly the paper favourites for this cup clash. This further plays into our CS Concordia Chiajna vs AFC Hermannstadt prediction regarding the betting value available.
- The mild autumn weather will hold up for this game and there is little chance of rain for Thursday’s match, which will not be shown on major TV but can be watched via streaming by FRF TV subscribers.
Prediction
We like the Under 2.5 goals bet at 1.6 as both sides have been inconsistent scorers recently, but this fixture could easily turn into a 2-0 or 2-1 game if Concordia’s attack clicks. Based on the analysis above, the CS Concordia Chiajna vs AFC Hermannstadt betting tips suggest a close encounter with a likely low goal tally.
