Fradi can get Frantic at Groupama Arena
Balazs Borbely has done a very good job with Ferencvarosi TC since taking over as head coach on 1 June 2026, but his side are coming up against a quality opponent in Trabzonspor on Thursday. Fradi are a settled unit and have proven very hard to break down on their day, which will make this a difficult task for Fatih Tekke's men, who have added a bit more pragmatism to this tie since he took over the reins on 11 March 2025.
Ferencvarosi TC head into the game on the back of a 1-1 draw at Gornik Zabrze, where they remained solid in a tricky game in Poland, while they followed that result up with a 1-0 away win over Zalaegerszegi TE in the Hungarian top-flight, before beating Trabzonspor by the same scoreline away. Fradi are on a 2-match winning streak and their 2-2-1 record in home games across all competitions this season has seen them concede just 0.80 goals per game on average, which is a pretty solid base to build from.
Marius Corbu has been in particularly fine form for Ferencvarosi TC of late, with the Romanian forward scoring two of his team's four goals over the past five fixtures. Lenny Joseph remains the danger man in the Europa League qualification campaign, however, as he leads the way with four goals in seven games since the start of the competition.
Trabzonspor have won four, drawn two and lost four of their last ten matches in all competitions, which makes for a pretty average form guide. The Black Sea Storm have won three, drawn one and lost two of their six away games in all competitions this term, scoring 1.17 goals per away game and conceding 1.33 goals on average.
Tight and tense game expected in Hungary
Ferencvarosi TC are the more settled team and have a clear idea of what they want to do in the upcoming fixture. Trabzonspor are the slight favourites at 141/100, although Ferencvarosi TC come in at 97/50 and the draw at 131/50, which suggests this could be a close encounter.
Fradi are set up with three at the back and two wide wing-backs that can push forward when they want to make things happen. These two systems should clash in a structural way, with Trabzonspor favouring a 4-2-3-1 shape and relying on deliveries into a target man. Ferencvarosi TC will look to stretch the game and catch Trabzonspor on the break, which could lead to a lively Europa League qualification fixture.
We're backing BTTS Yes at 13/20 and Over 2.5 goals at 39/50 for what should be an end-to-end fixture at Groupama Arena, as both sides look to secure a direct route into the league phase of the Europa League.
