Match preview: FC Brasov - Rapid Bucharest 2010-05-16 (Romania Liga 1)

Disappointing

Brasov had a disappointing second half of the season, although they looked different against powerful opponents (Dinamo, Steaua, Vaslui or CFR). There`s simply a different motivation when playing against the big teams. Last round they certainly showed they are no pushovers and snatched a point at Iasi which could lead tho locals to relegation. Brasov had a huge list of unavailable players for that game but most of them are recovering for the game against Brasov. Maldarasanu and gk Coman are still injured while defender Nuno Diogo is suspended. Midfielders Ilyes and Grigore along with striker Zaharia are doubtful but I believe at least 1-2 of them will be recovered. bet now

Behind Dinamo

Rapid is 4 points behind Dinamo and they could hope for their EL spot but it`s hard to believe Dinamo will fail to win against Astra. Rapid wasn`t convincing on the road the whole season, nevermind who their opponents were. Their main was at home where they benefit of their home crowd support. Anyway, they are not looking good at all, many players being out of form. They will miss injured defender Constantin and winger Cesinha, while their main goal scorer Ionita is suspended. Rapid has limited solutions in attack and they will be a blunt team without him. online betting

The hosts will have the edge

Brasov is historically a tough ground for Rapid. Their last win at Brasov happened in the 2004/2005 season when Brasov relegated, otherwise there were some tight games with the hosts having the edge. Moreover, many ex Rapid players or staff members are working at Brasov now and for sure they will have something to prove against Rapid`s owner. To underline the importance of this game for Brasov I will just say that right back Duarte was rested against Iasi after just recovering from an injury in order to have him fit for this game. Home win with an insurance on draw is my call. Good luck! bet online
