Corners Prediction

U Craiova Under 5.5 Corners -159 BetMGM logo

The 5.5 corners line has not been covered by Universitatea Craiova in three straight home games, while the past ten FCSB matches have seen under 5.5 corners conceded. We recommend backing the -159 that U Craiova aren’t able to cover the line, with this Team Corners wager hopefully providing a return.
