A battle for the record is next up against Ujpest

Vidi have met both Ujpest and Győr the most times in league games. There have been 94 games so far against both, so on Sunday it will be Ujpest who will have played the most against Videoton.

The statistics show a fairly even record over the 94 games that the two sides have met. Ujpest had a big advantage in games won during the 1970's, but Vidi recorded many wins later. Videoton have won 36 first division games against the team from the Megyeri street in Budapest. Ujpest have one more with 37 while 21 have been drawn. There have also been many goals scored between the duo over the years. Ujpest enjoy a 146-133 advantage, producing an average of 2,96 goals per match.

Sunday's game will be the 48th at the Sostoi stadium, with the home side picking up 21 wins, drawing 14 and losing 12 with a goal difference of 80-64 in favour of the Fehervar side. Laszlo Karsai has been the most successful player against Ujpest, scoring 7 goals against the lilacs. Istvan Salloi is next up having found the back of the Ujpest net 6 times. Tibor Wollek has five to his name, as do Jozsef Szabo and Brazilian Julinho. Two club legends follow with four goals each to their names. Laszlo Tieber and our current club director Gyozo Burcsa have also been successful against Ujpest. Zé Luis scored four goals against Ujpest during one season, which was the last one in 2013/14.

There has been a fierce battle over the last 10 years in games between the two when it comes to statistics. Vidi have won 11 of the 20 league matches since 2004, with 4 ending in draws and 5 in wins for Ujpest. Those games have resulted in a 31-17 goal difference for the red and blues. 

First ever league match:
The two sides first met on the 20th June 1968 at the Sostoi stadium. Videoton suffered a 2-6 defeat to the then known Ujpest Dozsa, with the Vidi goals that day coming from Karsai and Bodnar.

The first Vidi win:
Ujpest won the first four league games with a 22-6 goal difference, but Vidi won the fifth meeting to break that run. That came in 1970/71 with a 2-1 home win with the goals coming from Wollek and Csukovics.

The biggest win:
The 2001/02 season saw Vidi record their biggest win in week 37. Ujpest were beaten 5-0 on that day, with Vidi also winning once by a four goal margin and five by a three goal difference. 

Longest undefeated run at home:

That came between 1987 and 1996 with 9 undefeated games producing 6 wins and 3 draws.

Most goals scored against Ujpest:

That praise goes to Laszlo Karsai. The clubs legendary forward scored 7 goals in games with Ujpest.

Last Ujpest success:

Ujpest have not managed to beat Videoton in the last six league games. They last picked up all three points in May 2011, when they won 1-0 in Budapest. That game seems a long time ago with Adam Gyurcso making his debut in that match. A total of 1210 days and 80 league appearances have passed since then, with the player also appearing 11 times for Hungary.
