Balatonfuredi form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Balatonfuredi so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-5 (win-draw-lose).

There might be some fixture complaints from Balatonfuredi as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the NB 3: Nyugati match against Gyirmót II (0-4). As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Gyirmót II was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

Preceding that, the 1-8 home loss versus MTE 1904.

Balatonfuredi are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, zero draws and one defeat. From a total of one match.
