• Venue: National Arena

On Friday, Romania will compete against Northern Ireland in one of two friendly matches scheduled for this month’s internationals.

Edward Iordănescu’s team had an unforgettable final few months, ending up at the top of Group I with 22 points from ten games, qualifying for the Euros for the first time since 2016. Having gone undefeated in all ten games, the hosts aim to maintain this streak in the coming week.

Meanwhile, Northern Ireland experienced one of their poorest performances in Euro qualifying. They ended up in fifth place in Group H, having secured only nine points from 10 games. Additionally, they allowed the second highest number of goals in the group.

Romania vs Northern Ireland Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals

The Romanians have recently performed impressively in their games, demonstrating strong offensive and defensive skills. Edward Iordănescu’s team triumphed in four out of their last five matches, netting a total of eight goals and only allowing one in. In three of these matches, less than 2.5 goals were scored. I believe that the upcoming Friday’s match will follow a similar pattern.

Despite only securing victory in three out of their last ten games across all competitions, Northern Ireland seldom allow many goals. In fact, the visiting team has let in more than a single goal in just two of these ten matches. During this timeframe, betting on less than 2.5 goals resulted in wins a record seven times.

Furthermore, previous matches between Romania and Northern Ireland were not particularly exciting. In each of the last five games between these two countries, fewer than 2.5 goals were scored.

• Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals.
• Romania vs Northern Ireland prediction: 1-1
