Gloria Buzău hope to move out of the bottom of the league when they welcome FCSB to the Stadionul Jean Pădureanu on Sunday. The hosts have lost their last three games. Can they return to winning ways here? Below, I have the team news, possible starting 11, some interesting facts, expert betting tips, and odds.

Gloria Buzău

LWLLL

Gloria Buzău suffered a 1-0 loss to Farul Constanta in their last game to extend their losing run to three games, and relegation looks near after each game week. However, they have won four of their last five games at home but still remain bottom of the table with 19 points in 26 games, scoring 23 goals and conceding 40. To avoid relegation, they will have to do better going into the playoffs and have to find a good replacement for striker Ricardo Matos, who has faced to play in their last four games due to injuries. The 24-year-old has scored six goals this season, partnering 35-year-old Constantin Budescu in the attack.
