Újpest will hope that their home support is enough to get something from this demanding duel, vs frisky Ferencváros.

Insights:
  • Újpest have scored in all their home matches so far.
  • Ferencváros have the fewest conceded goals (13) in OTP Bank Liga

There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.

Ferencváros could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a OTP Bank Liga game only three sleeps ago. That game, against Puskás, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Ferencváros.

3 victories, 2 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Újpest have to build on here at Szusza Ferenc Stadion in the OTP Bank Liga.
