Puskas FC Academy
- Puskas FC Academy are 6th in NB I 2025/2026 with 10 points from 8 games and have won just 1 of their last 5 in all competitions (D1, L3).
- Puskas have won 2 of their 4 NB I home fixtures in 2025/2026 but have lost their two most recent games at home, which raises questions about their ‘fortress’ status and offers an important note for those looking for Puskas FC Academy vs FC Ujpest betting tips.
- Puskas coach Zsolt Hornyak has been in charge since July 2019 and has had plenty of time to implement a structured, process-driven style on the team.
- They control the ball, press in a measured way and are happy to patiently build up in numbers.
- The gameplan is based on a compact back four and wide overloads, which is a good system that brings rewards, but they have conceded 8 goals in 4 home matches, so there is a clear problem with their backline.
FC Ujpest
- FC Ujpest are 8th in NB I 2025/2026 with 8 points from 8 matches and have won just 1 of their last 5 (L4).
- Ujpest have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 1 of their 3 away fixtures in NB I 2025/2026, a detail that could influence this Puskas FC Academy vs FC Ujpest prediction.
- Damir Krznar has pushed FC Ujpest in a very different direction since taking over in May 2025.
- He has been very vocal about trying to create an attack-minded identity with a high tempo, proactive pressing game and mobile attacking units.
- There’s no doubt that Ujpest play a different kind of soccer to their opponents on Saturday, but results are yet to reflect Krznar’s vision.
Key Players
- The directness of Krznar’s football means Ujpst have a little more punch in transition and Aljosa Matko, who runs off the shoulder of the striker and moves into pockets of space, is a big part of their vertical style.
- However, Lukacs is a clinical finisher and Puskas’s talisman, which should be considered when evaluating Puskas FC Academy vs FC Ujpest betting tips.
Betting Insights
Puskas have the better form guide and are rightly priced at 1.95 with Ujpest at 3.55 and a draw at 3.65 , but both games have had some slip-ups of late and it’s hard to put money on either side.
Prediction
We like the home side as slight favourites, but the threat of Ujpest moving forward vertically is a factor that will keep this game close for long periods.
