Debrecen form and stats

When playing at home in the OTP Bank Liga, Debrecen have managed 6 wins, 4 draws and suffered 5 defeats from 15 games. Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

The fans are hoping that Debrecen will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the OTP Bank Liga game against MOL Vidi (placed 2nd). Preceding that game was the home draw versus Puskás that ended 2-2.

The manager E. Kondás will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Mezokovesd-Zsory in only three days.

A decent goal production from Debrecen in their home games so far, with 25 goals from 15 league matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Debrecen defense is not exactly impregnable. 25 goals conceded from 15 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
