The OTP Bank Liga league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Zalaegerszegi TE and Honvéd are placed 4th and 12th respectively.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
