Both sides have had a pretty mixed bag of results in recent weeks, with the home side winning once, drawing two and losing twice, while the visitors have won two, drawn one and lost two.
Sergio Navarro has tried to instil some positivity in Debreceni VSC since taking the reins, encouraging his side to press the ball hard, move it quickly and spread the play wide to create numerical advantages in the half-spaces. This should in theory suit his team when they face a pragmatic Ujpest side that prefers to sit deep and frustrate their opponents, according to our Debreceni VSC vs FC Ujpest prediction.
Zoltan Szelesi has made the visitors organised and tough to play through, but they do have an eye for a situation-specific strike on the break that can unlock games when needed. Aljosa Matko leads the line with 16 goals in 32 appearances in the NB I, while Krisztofer Horvath has also chipped in with four of Ujpest’s last 11 in their last five games.
