Hódmezővásárhely form and stats
This is not the first game this season in the Hungarian Cup for Hódmezővásárhely, as the manager led his troops to eliminate Ikarus BSE, and reach the 2nd Round. Hódmezővásárhely was eliminated in the 16th finals last season in the Hungarian Cup.The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the NB 3: Bakony this season. Hódmezővásárhely have only managed 0 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Városi Stadion. With 13 home NB 3: Bakony games in a row without a win, the Hódmezővásárhely fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Paksi SE II game long ago, can be stopped today.
It's back home for Hódmezővásárhely, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Ikarus BSE away with the result 4-0. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Hódmezővásárhely played a great game against Ikarus BSE and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.
