Debrecen form and stats

1 victory, 2 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Debrecen have to build on here at Nagyerdei Stadion in the OTP Bank Liga.

Debrecen are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Mezokovesd-Zsory.

Before that, Debrecen drew at home versus MOL Vidi.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Debrecen have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found four matches with the results: Won zero, drawn one and lost three.

The manager S. Huszti will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Kecskemeti TE in only three days.

Goals decide football matches and Debrecen are scoring many of them at home; 9 on target from 4 league matches. On the other hand, Debrecen have conceded 5 goals.

Puskás form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most clean sheets (4) in OTP Bank Liga, on their OTP Bank Liga travels is 4 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats.

Puskás have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Balazs Toth. It's been 318 minutes since they last conceded in OTP Bank Liga.

Puskás play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 1-0 victory visiting MTK (placed 9th).

Before that, Puskás secured a home win against Mezokovesd-Zsory with the score 2-0.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Puskás playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were three Puskás wins, three draws and three defeats.

The schedule is very tough for Puskás now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Hungarian Cup game at Győri ETO is waiting in only three days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Puskás have scored 7 goals in 5 league games away. Puskás's manager Z. Hornyák has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 2 conceded goals. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
