Videoton went in to the game on the back of an unbeaten run of 13 games. Paulo Sousa's side also completed a 4-0 aggregate win over Diosgyőr in the league cup over the last couple of weeks. This win confirmed the current high confidence within the squad. Paulo Sousa went for his usual settled side, which saw Bozovic keep his place in between the posts. The regular back line of Brachi on the right, young Szolnoki on the left and Vinicius and Caneira in the middle meant continuity, which has been the basis of this fine unbeaten run.
Oliveira, Toth, Sandor, Mitrovic and Walter offered various options for Torghelle who battled hard up front. A good crowd of around 10,000 produced a good atmosphere, and Vidi were looking to silence the crowd early on. They managed to do just that when Torghelle headed against the post following a Mitrovic long ball, with the alert Vinicius reacting the fastest to volley home from virtually in front of the goal.
The home side were certainly putting the boot in early on, with Budovinszky having his own personal battle with Torghelle. Abdouraman headed wide of the post following a cross from Luque after 5 minutes, as Diosgyőr tried to get back in the game. Home keeper Farkas collected a dangerous looking Brachi free kick from the right. Sekour then became the first player to go in to the referee's notebook on 12 minutes, after he fouled Torghelle. Caneira did well to block a Luque shot after 17 minutes following a cross, as the home side began to see more of the ball.
Toth then saw his powerful shot go just over the crossbar after 22 minutes. The atmosphere inside the stadium remained hot, with Walter
