Samoa to get narrow win (Getty Images)
Romania vs Samoa Predictions
An improving Romanian will be hoping that home ground advantage can catch their seasoned opponents off guard. Samoa will be backed as favourites but will be wary of the threat that the Romanian forwards pose.

- Samoa have won 5 of their last 6 matches
Head-to-Head
Samoa beat the Samoans 17-13 in their last encounter.
Romania Form and News
Romania have improved in leaps and bounds and will look to keep the match tight and bypass the Samoan backs as much as possible. Five wins from their nine matches this year has proved that they are very competitive.
Recent results have seen them lose 26-20 to Uruguay and follow it up with a 30-23 win against Chile.
The most recent fixture saw Romania lose 21-16 against Uruguay. Romania will be gutted as they took the lead in the 79th minute but conceded a try deep into injury time in a bruising encounter with Uruguay.
We expect the team to be pretty similar with the possibility of a couple changes here and there quite high.
Samoa Form and News
Samoa have a fearsome reputation for big hits and powerful running. Their general lack of forward cohesion could prove to be their downfall in this match. They have picked up four wins from five matches this year.
Results of late include a 23-20 win over Fiji and a 49-17 loss to Italy.
The most recent match was a 20-19 win against Georgia last week. The Georgians are known for their powerful forwards and took the Samoans head on. A last gasp try saved the Samoan blushes at the death as they won a tougher than anticipated match.
We expect a similar team but do anticipate the possibility of a couple of changes to iron out some of last week’s faults. Duncan Paia’aua will miss the match as he is serving a four week suspension.
Verdict
I am backing Romania to cover the handicap.
