Argeş and UTA Arad have met many times, and most results have finished with a narrow margin. The two sides have traded wins and draws over several matches. This time both teams are in the middle of the table, just three points apart, so the game carries a little more weight than usual. Argeş have played 12 matches, won 3, drawn 3 and lost 6, scoring 8 and conceding 13. They are a team that does not create many chances, but they have not been losing back-to-back lately. UTA Arad have also played 12 matches, won 4, drawn 3 and lost 5, scoring 15 and conceding 17. Their attack is stronger, but their defence is fairly open. The game is likely to be a cautious affair rather than an open exchange, because both sides know that a defeat here would drop them out of the mid-table group immediately. After kick-off, the first thing to watch is how deep Argeş sit in the first half, because if they close the central spaces well, the game will flow at a slower tempo than UTA Arad want.
