Gyorgy Bognar’s Paksi FC are set to play a style that should suit them well against Gyori ETO FC this Sunday. Since his appointment as head coach in February 2023, Bognar’s Paksi FC have been a direct, high-intensity and aggressive team. They have pressed well in the middle third and tried to get the ball into the final third at pace, which plays into our Paksi FC vs Gyori ETO FC prediction for this weekend.
