Can leaders Ferencvaros bank three points?
Ferencvaros are six points clear at the top of the Hungarian top flight. They have a game in hand over everyone else in the race as well. So that’s a strong position to be in, and this is their catch-up game.
They are away from W7 D2 L2 this season. They returned last weekend from the lockdown when they collected a 2-1 home success over Debrecen.
So far away from home this season in league action, Ferencvaros have averaged a solid two goals per game. While their defensive home record is superb, they have been a little bit leaky on their travels.
Ferenceves have averaged almost 1.3 goals per game away against them, with 73% of all their road games going over 2.5 goals. They have collected just the one point from their last two road games.
However it is notable that the two away defeats that they have suffered have been against sides currently in the top four with them. Wednesday’s opponents Ujpest are nowhere near that.
When Ferencvaros hosted Ujpest earlier this season they banked a 1-0 home win over them. In total home and away, Ferencvaros have suffered just one loss in their last 22 league matches.
Tough task ahead for Ujpest
Ujpest have some relegation concerns. They are only currently sitting safe by a point. This is their game in hand over the three teams beneath them, so any returns from this could be huge.
This will be their first game back from lockdown. Before that they had managed to win just one of nine league games (D3 L5) so weren’t running in any form at all.
The overall home form of Ujpest is a poor W2 D3 L6 record and they have lost all of three of their home fixtures this term against teams currently in the top five.
