International Friendlies | Romania VS Bulgaria; Wednesday 05 June at 02:30 GMT +8

Romania is seeking a better result after a 2-3 loss in the International Friendlies against Colombia. They scored 10 goals in their last six fixtures, with an average of 1.67 goals per match, with Ianis Hagi and Florin Tănase as Romania’s scorers.

Bulgaria’s recent draw with Azerbaijan in International Friendlies resulted in a 1-1 draw, with Filip Krastev scoring the only goal. The team has been scored against in five of their last six games, with opposing sides scoring nine goals. This trend may not continue in the upcoming match.

Romania is expected to dominate possession and convert chances into goals. Bulgaria may struggle to break down their defense, but they may also score. Our tip is for a 3-1 win for Romania at full-time.

Romania’s head coach, Edward Iordănescu, will be without Andrei Burcă due to injury, causing concern for his fitness. The hosts’ squad for June matches includes Marian Aioani, Andres Dumitrescu, Andrei Borza, Valentin Țicu, and Andrei Artean.

Viktor Popov will be unavailable for Bulgaria’s head coach Ilian Iliev due to an injury sustained in April. He has not returned to action since then. Ilian’s squad includes Plamen Andreev and Dimitar Tonev, with Ivaylo Chochev being the most capped player.
