FC Ujpest (Home)
- FC Ujpest are unbeaten in their last 3 games (D2, W1), 4 of 4 at home in NB I 2026/2027 (W3, D1) and have scored in all 4 of their home games.
- Ujpest and Puskas FC Academy are separated by only 1 place and 0 points in NB I 2026/2027, but that doesn't make Saturday's clash at Szusza Ferenc Stadion easy to call.
- Ujpest have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 1 of their last 5, which looks like a bad sequence, but is perhaps the sign of a resilient and consistent side.
- Zoltan Szelesi's men drew 2-2 away at Ferencvaros, beat bottom club Zalaegerszeg 2-1 at home, and drew 1-1 away at Kispest Honved.
Puskas FC Academy (Away)
- Puskas FC Academy have won 3 and lost 2 of their last 5 fixtures (D0) and have won 3 of their 4 away games in NB I 2026/2027 (L1).
- Puskas FC Academy also lost to Zalaegerszeg in midweek, going down 1-0 away, and they followed that result up with a 3-1 home win over Kispest Honved.
- Levente Babo's side appear to have been in good shape on the road with 3 wins and 1 loss from their 4 trips so far in the new NB I campaign, but their 1-0 defeat at the bottom club gives us pause.
- FC Ujpest are 4th in NB I 2026/2027 with 15 points from 9 games while Puskas FC Academy are top of the table with 15 points from 8.

Betting Insights
