Prediction Hermannstadt vs Farul Constanța 2025/2026 – Betting Tips for the Liga 1 on 25/08/2025

A clash of contrasting rhythms in Sibiu

Sibiu's Stadionul Municipal will stage an intriguing Liga 1 encounter as Hermannstadt welcome Farul Constanța on 25 August 2025. On paper the hosts sit deep in the table, anchored to 14th with a sequence of draws and narrow defeats that underline a team finding it difficult to turn parity into three points. Their six regular season matches have produced four draws and two losses, with just six goals scored and eight conceded. The run of recent results — stalemates against Petrolul and Universitatea Cluj, punctuated by tight losses on the road — has made Hermannstadt stubborn but toothless in front of goal. Home form shows only four goals scored and no clean sheets, a pattern that has left them sharing points more often than celebrating wins.

Farul arrive from a loftier perch in fifth and carry more attacking punch. With three wins, one draw and two defeats in six outings, they have tallied nine goals while conceding eight, and their recent league fixtures include confident victories over Metaloglobus and FCSB. Statistical indicators favour Farul’s offensive output: higher shot averages, more shots on target and a greater share of dangerous attacks per match. Their away numbers suggest a team willing to press forward and create chances, even if they haven’t found domestic shutouts either.

Why this should be an open contest

History and the numbers both hint at goals. The last meeting between these sides ended 1-1 in April, underlining a competitive balance that often spills into shared goal celebrations. Hermannstadt’s home encounters have produced BTTS outcomes half the time, while Farul’s away matches show an even higher rate of both teams scoring. Neither side boasts clean-sheet reliability; combined with Farul’s superior shot volume and Hermannstadt’s tendency to draw rather than defend out tight wins, the match shape points toward an open affair rather than a cagey stalemate.

There is also a storyline in form: Hermannstadt’s drawn games suggest resilience and the ability to nick results, whereas Farul’s more decisive victories indicate a side capable of breaking opponents down. Recent best player accolades from the clubs’ last matches — Silviu Balaure for Hermannstadt’s stalemate and C. Ganea for Farul’s recent outing — reflect individuals on whom each team have leaned, but neither has turned defensive solidity into a constant.

Betting suggestion: Both Teams to Score — Yes. Based on the home side’s 50% BTTS rate, Farul’s 60% away BTTS figure, zero clean sheets between them and a head-to-head that finished 1-1 last time, the goal market for both teams to score offers the best value for this fixture.
