Molde form and stats

This is not the first game this season in the Champions League for Molde, as the manager E. Moe led his troops to eliminate Celje, Qarabag and KuPS, and reach the Play-offs. Last season, Molde's Europa League journey ended in the play-offs.

Home games in the Eliteserien have been a walk in the park for Molde so far, with 21 points won from 8 matches; 7 wins, 0 draws and 1 loss. 2W-1D-0L is the hard facts regardless of venue in the Champions League for Molde.

Molde are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Vålerenga. Preceding that game was the away draw at Qarabag (after extra-time, 5-6 on penalties) that finished 0-0.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Molde, as the Eliteserien home game vs Sandefjord is only three days away.

Goals are plentiful at Aker Stadion in the league this season as Molde has scored 24 goals here in 8 home games. Molde have only conceded 5 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Ferencváros form and stats

The traveling awayteam has defeated Celtic, Djurgården and Dinamo Zagreb in order to reach Play-offs of Champions League. They also participated in Champions League last season. This ended in the 3rd qualifying round.

Ferencváros are still undefeated on their travels in the NB 1. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other. The mentioned statistics is only from the league, looking at the Champions League stats, they have 3 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses both home and away.

Two travels in a row for Ferencváros, whose manager S. Rebrov could celebrate last time after the Hungarian Cup win against Rackeve VAFC. A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Dinamo Zagreb.

As mentioned above, Ferencváros was the only team on the pitch versus Rackeve VAFC in their previous game, winning 6-1. This could be a tougher task.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Ferencváros manager S. Rebrov as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Budafoki MTE.

It's early days yet, but Ferencváros has scored 3 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
