Puskás form and stats

Overall NB 1 stats at home this season for Puskás are 3-1-3 (wins-draw-losses).

The points were shared in Puskás's previous game, also at home. Visiting Mezokovesd-Zsory (placed 2nd) travelled back with a point after a 1-1 scoreline. In the game before, an away victory match versus MOL Vidi with a 3-1 scoreline.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Puskás have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Pancho Arena with 13 goals in 7 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 11 goals have been conceded.
