With their 1 point advantage in the league table, Újpest fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Debrecen.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Újpest and Debrecen.
Újpest form and stats
With 3 OTP Bank Liga wins, 3 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Újpest are certainly not brimming with confidence.
A nice win for Újpest last time playing, versus Honvéd. That was also a home game and the match ended 1-0 with Soma Novothny scoring for the victors. Heartbreak before that as Újpest lost 0-1 at Várda SE's place.
Újpest are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 13 games. 19 goals have been conceded.
Debrecen form and stats
Debrecen have only collected 10 points from their away games in the OTP Bank Liga, after 3-1-9 (13 played). Bitter travels for Debrecen as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Diosgyor match.
Debrecen's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Kaposvari Rakoczi that finished 1-1. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Honvéd wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.
A new game in only four days for Debrecen, the OTP Bank Liga home match versus Puskas. Busy days.
The visiting Debrecen have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 16 goals from 13 games. The Debrecen manager Z. Vitelki has some worries about the defense as 27 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Debrecen - Újpest 4-0. H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Újpest four wins, three draws and Debrecen three victories. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
