Fradi have a flying start
Season start and form
Ferencvarosi TC have had a very positive start to their NB I 2026/2027 campaign, despite not starting with the win. Balazs Borbely's men have won 4 of their last 5 overall, and having won their previous 2 at the Groupama Arena, the home field advantage is very much in play here.
Manager and tactics
After making their mark as Vidi manager in 2024, Borbely took the helm at Ferencvarosi TC on 1 June 2026, and his early work has seen the hosts get into gear with a flexible 4-2-3-1 system featuring energetic pressing, wing overloads and lightning-fast counter-pressing. Their 2-1 win at FC Twente in UEFA Europa League Qualification 2026 was their most impressive outing to date, but they soon followed up with a 4-2 away defeat to Paksi FC in NB I 2026/2027, so they've been a little inconsistent.
Key players
Bamidele Yusuf has been the main finisher so far with 1 in 1 for Ferencvarosi TC, while Barnabas Nagy has played an attacking spark with 1 assist to his name. Budapest Vasas SC are no pushovers however, and this should be noted.
Vasas need to be on point
6th-placed Budapest Vasas SC have collected 1 point from 1 game in NB I 2026/2027, but that's enough to be just ahead of Ferencvarosi TC in 10th with 0 points from 1. Erős Gábor's men are compact and defend in blocks, with direct play and set pieces their best route to hurting the opposition.
Budapest Vasas SC drew 2-2 at home with Gyori ETO FC after making it 1 win from 1 in NB I 2026/2027 following a 2-1 home victory over FC Ajka. The visitors have won 1 and lost 1 of their last 2 on the road, which suggests they can travel well, but Ferencvarosi TC will surely be ready for them.
The edge goes to the hosts
The odds are heavily weighted toward the home team for this game at 1.43, although Budapest Vasas SC are priced at a respectable 5.95 with the draw at 4.3. We're going with the better price on the visitors, although the value may lie elsewhere.
- Ferencvarosi TC are a higher quality team than Budapest Vasas SC on paper and they're in their prime right now, so this shouldn't be a walk in the park, but it should be a home win.
- There's a lot to like about Over 2.5 goals at 1.59 and Both Teams to Score – Yes at 1.7, but Ferencvarosi TC's aggressive wing overloads and quick counter-pressing should press Budapest Vasas SC deep, while the compact visitors will look to nick moments in transition and from dead balls.
- Barnabas Nagy has 1 assist for the Green Army this season.
- Daniel Csoka has 1 goal for Budapest Vasas SC in NB I 2026/2027 and Jozef Urblik has 1 assist, however the Slovakian playmaker has also bagged 4 of his side's 10 goals across the last 5 matches, so we're siding with a 2-1 kind of home win on the exact score wager.
