FC Botosani
- FC Botosani are currently 13th in Liga I 2026-2027, having picked up 6 points in their opening 6 games.
- Croitoru has done a fantastic job at FCB since he joined on 10th March 2026 and they have been very hard to break down at home in Liga I 2026-2027, winning 1 and drawing 2 of their first 3 there.
- Botoșani have averaged 0.67 goals per game at Stadionul, which suggests a relatively cagey game could develop.
Sepsi Sfantu Gheorghe
- Sepsi Sfantu Gheorghe are 8th in Liga I 2026-2027, having taken 10 points from their first 7 matches.
- Botoșănenii have won just one of their last five matches in all competitions, drawn two and lost two, while Sepsi are unbeaten in their last five, winning one and drawing four.
- Sepsi have won 4 of the last 5 games against Botoșani, with one draw, and will be coming to Romania with momentum in their sails after a 1-0 home win over Csikszereda.
Head-to-Head
Sepsi have won 4 of the last 5 games against Botoșani, with one draw , highlighting recent dominance between the sides.
Key Players
But they will need Andrei Dumiter's edge to shine because he has carried the team's scoring load with 5 goals in 6 games in Liga I 2026-2027 and 4 of the last 5.
Betting Insights
- The odds here, which are set at 2.29 for the hosts, 3.14 for Sepsi and 3.14 for the draw, suggest the fixture is closer than it really is.
- A tight battle with some end-to-end action seems likely here and the Under 2.5 goals market at 1.6 is the main recommendation of this preview.
Prediction
FC Botosani are slight favorites to beat an improving Sepsi Sfantu Gheorghe in Liga I 2026-2027 on Saturday, but we think the visitors will be tough to topple at Stadionul Municipal.
