Cyprus vs Romania Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 12th October 2024
Cyprus take on Romania at AEK Arena, where an thrilling match is hopefully on the cards on Saturday. It is one of the many matches in round three of the group stage in the Nations League C this season. Romania won 6-5 and 2-0 in the two most recent meetings with Cyprus, and go into their upcoming match with a psychological advantage.
Cyprus enter their upcoming game placed as number 123 in the FIFA world ranking. There is a bit of a gap to opponents Romania, who enter the game ranked number 45 in the world.
Following the second round of the group stage Cyprus are number three on three, whereas Romania have six as number one. Cyprus are entering their third contest with three points to their name, hoping to go through this stage unscathed. It is never desirable to be defeated in a home match if you are aiming to make the cut for a Championship.
Cyprus scored seven times in the last ten outings for an average of 0.7 goals a game. They conceded 16 and managed five clean sheets.
Romania head into their third group match in the Nations League C in red-hot form after winning both their first encounters. No doubt, they'll aim to keep momentum against Cyprus.
