Kazincbarcika BSC (Home)
- Kazincbarcika BSC have lost four consecutive NB I 2025/2026 matches, failing to score in the last two.
- Kazincbarcika BSC’s average of 0.73 goals per home game in NB I 2025/2026.
- Kazincbarcika BSC’s debut season in the top-flight of Hungarian soccer has been a tough learning curve for Attila Kuttor’s men, who enter Friday’s clash with MTK Budapest in a precarious 12th position with just 17 points from 30 games.
- The appointment of Kuttor in June 2025 has brought a pragmatic, compact style to the club, and they have largely looked to contain games and try to nick them when they can.
- However, Balint Kartik leads the team with four goals in NB I 2025/2026 for Kazincbarcika, and his four goals don’t seem like enough firepower for them to survive in the Hungarian top-flight.
- They enter this match after a 4-0 defeat away to Zalaegerszeg, and have lost two straight home games, failing to even score in either of those contests.
MTK Budapest (Away)
- MTK Budapest enter the weekend in 9th place in the NB I 2025/2026 table, with 35 points from 30 matches representing a stable mid-table performance.
- Pinezits has introduced a more structured and possession-based style to the team, who play with a flexible 4-2-3-1 system which focuses on controlling the tempo and probing for openings.
- Adin Molnar has been deadly in front of goal for MTK with 11 goals in 29 appearances in NB I 2025/2026, while the club’s advanced midfielders add some creativity to this team.
- MTK Budapest have conceded 2.21 goals per game away from home in NB I 2025/2026, but they are expected to dominate possession in this clash while Kazincbarcika could look to exploit spaces left by MTK’s advanced fullbacks.

Betting Insights
The odds for Both Teams to Score - Yes are 1.57 , which I feel is too short, but this game does have potential for plenty of action in the attacking third.
Prediction
For this reason, I am taking MTK for the win, while the 1.59 odds on Over 2.5 goals look attractive to me in this stylistic clash.
