There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the NB 1 table so far. Here's the Honvéd - Várda SE latest:
Honvéd have less rest than Várda SE in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Hungarian Cup game only three days ago. This match was also played here at Illovszky Rudolf Stadion. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Várda SE have had more rest.
Honvéd form and stats
When playing at home in the NB 1, Honvéd have managed 4 wins, 3 draws and suffered 5 defeats from 12 games.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 218 minutes without scoring a league goal. D. Lanzafame was the last player to find the net.
The Honvéd supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Paksi SE in Hungarian Cup and win 2-0. A 0-0 draw away in the NB 1 before that, with Paksi SE the opponent.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Honvéd have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won four times, drawn one and lost one.
Honvéd has scored 12 league goals at home this season, in 12 matches. Honvéd have conceded 15 in these home matches.
Várda SE form and stats
There's been little loot from Várda SE's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 12 away games in the NB 1. Várda SE only have 2 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 2 draws. Várda SE has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
Várda SE lost away at Debrecen (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Paksi SE.
Várda SE are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, one draw and two defeats. From a total of six matches.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Várda SE as they have only managed to score 10 times from 12 away games in the league. In the opposite end, Várda SE have conceded 20 goals in their away games.
Head 2 Head
