Nyiregyhaza Spartacus
- Nyiregyhaza Spartacus FC come into Saturday’s clash with Kisvarda FC in much better form than their opponents after 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat from their last 5 games.
- Tamas Bodog was appointed to coach the club in late October 2025 and has made a solid start, particularly when it comes to tightening up a defence that was letting in goals far too easily.
- His side have won their last 3 fixtures, including a 4-2 victory over MTK Budapest and a 4-0 road win over Kazincbarcikai BSC.
- They have won only 2 of their 11 home games, drawing 4 and losing 5 in NB I 2025/2026, so they will need to keep Kisvarda FC at arm’s length for much of the game.
Kisvarda FC
- Attila Revesz has encouraged his players to adopt a vertical playing style that involves wide players and set-piece specialists that can cause problems for the opposition.
- Kisvarda FC are in 7th spot in NB I 2025/2026 with 31 points from 22 games, but they have lost momentum with 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats from their last 5.
- Their away form has been 4 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses from 11 away fixtures.
- They have conceded 18 in those 11 trips, so they can be open at the back and Nyiregyhaza, who play a compact, defence-first style, can create problems with counter-attacks and set pieces.
Head-to-Head
- Bodog's past ties to Kisvarda will add spice to the occasion, and there is a clear tactical clash between Nyiregyhaza’s pragmatism and Kisvarda’s tempo and drive.
- The last time these clubs met in NB I 2025/2026 finished 1-1 at Nyiregyhaza.
Key Players
- Muhamed Tijani has been their most in-form player, scoring 4 of their last 10 goals, while Bright Edomwonyi has been the mainstay of their attack with 5 in 14 games.
- Kisvarda rely on wide players and set-piece specialists to create chances.
Betting Insights
- The odds show Nyiregyhaza at 2.06, Kisvarda at 3.4 and the draw at 3.2.
- A draw with goals looks likely and Both Teams to Score at 1.9 is the preferred play, given both teams have been leaking goals at either end.
Prediction
The scoreboard looks set for a tight, goal-filled derby and a 1-1 draw is the most likely outcome.
