Újpest are welcoming Honvéd for another important game after their 1-1 result against 3rd-placed Varda SE.
- Újpest has the most conceded goals (29) in OTP Bank Liga
Honvéd could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a OTP Bank Liga game only four sleeps ago.
This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.
Újpest form and stats
Újpest's results here at Szusza Ferenc Stadion in the OTP Bank Liga have been very modest with 1 victory, 2 draws and 3 defeats.
Újpest drew their last game, 1-1 away at Varda SE (placed 3rd). Ahead of that match, Újpest lost 1-2 at home to Puskás.
The hometeam coach P. Rogan made a successful contribution in the game against Varda SE, bringing on Péter Szakály who scored the equalizer in the 1-1 draw.
This is expected to be a close game, with Újpest perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Újpest as a small favourite), we find three games. Újpest has won two of these, drawn zero and lost one.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the OTP Bank Liga game versus Zalaegerszegi TE in only three days. This game is also played here at Szusza Ferenc Stadion.
The Újpest fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 6 matches. Újpest have conceded 12 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Honvéd form and stats
2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Honvéd playing as the away team in the OTP Bank Liga this season.
Honvéd go into this game after a win, the home game against Diósgyőr that ended 5-1. Before that, Honvéd travelled to Varda SE and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.
As mentioned above, Honvéd was the only team on the pitch versus Diósgyőr in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by Honvéd in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Honvéd, three draws and two defeats.
The schedule is very tough for Honvéd now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A OTP Bank Liga game at Budafoki MTE is waiting in only three days.
