MTK Budapest
- MTK Budapest have won two and drawn two of their last five home games across all competitions.
- MTK Budapest have won just two of their last 10 but have drawn seven and lost just one, so they are in much better form and should have too much for their visitors on Monday.
Zalaegerszegi TE
- Zalaegerszegi TE are in poor form in the NB I 2026-2027, losing four in a row and winless in their four most recent outings, and this away trip to the Hungarian capital will be anything but easy.
- Zalaegerszegi TE's last 10 games in all competitions have seen them win four and lose five, while their away record of one win, one draw and four losses from six is hardly inspiring.
Head-to-Head
- The last five head-to-head games between these two sides in all competitions have resulted in two wins and three draws for MTK Budapest and Zalaegerszegi TE have yet to win a game against their hosts.
- Zalaegerszegi TE have failed to win any of their last three away games against MTK Budapest in all competitions.
Key Players
Zalan Kerezsi has scored three goals in MTK Budapest's last five matches and is their most dangerous player in the final third.
Betting Insights
- The last game between these sides in the NB I 2025/2026 season was a 3-0 win for MTK Budapest at home and the home team are the favourites to take the points once more, but the price of 2.38 on MTK Budapest looks short for a side that are coming into this off the back of three consecutive draws.
- Zalaegerszegi TE have conceded 16 goals in their six away matches across all competitions, so their defence should be under pressure on Monday.
- Backing over 2.5 goals and both teams to score looks the way to go in this NB I clash, as Celikkaya's front three should bring more width and pace to the matchup, but they may get exposed at the back if MTK play them through their press.
Prediction
The game could be a bit of a tug of war with the hosts trying to control the tempo and the visitors desperate to cause chaos by forcing the ball wide and pressing high.
