BetGenius backs FCSB or Draw (Double Chance) at 70% confidence — a solid call. Total goals: Under 2.5 Goals.
Arges Pitesti host FCSB in the group stage of the Romanian Cup, with both sides looking to respond after recent setbacks. The hosts enter this cup tie following consecutive 1-0 defeats against Sepsi and Otelul, continuing a run of tight, low-scoring encounters.
FCSB arrive after a 3-1 home loss to UTA Arad and a 1-0 away defeat against CFR Cluj. Their recent fixtures on the road have been defensively cautious, including a goalless stalemate against Sepsi and the narrow loss in Cluj.
The head-to-head record leans toward FCSB, who have won six of the last ten meetings between the two clubs. That includes a 2-0 victory in their most recent encounter in July 2026, though Arges Pitesti did claim two wins over FCSB across their last four home and away matchups.
Combined scoring rate: 1.3 goals per game (Arges Pitesti at home plus FCSB away).
FCSB have won 7 of the last 10 meetings, averaging 3.1 goals a game, 60% went over 2.5.
FCSB hold the upper hand in the overall head-to-head record, winning six of the past ten matches against Arges Pitesti, including a 2-0 victory in July 2026.
