Saturday's opponents are fighting for a place in the Europa League

Videoton take on Debrecen on Saturday having won the last 9 games between the two sides.

DVSC again climbed back into a top three position following last Saturday’s draw with Ferencvaros in the OTP league. Andras Herczeg’s side made a slow start to the spring season suffering a 0-2 loss at home to Balmazujvaros, 1-2 against Dorog in the Hungarian cup and a 0-0 draw with Puskas Academy. Further defeats to Ujpest 1-2 and Mezokovesd 2-3 was then followed by a turn in fortune. There was a draw with Haladas and a 5-2 away win at Paks, before the draw with Ferencvaros.

They also made it past Dorog and Honved in the cup over two legs. In form Norbert Konyves has been in the scoring mood having scored 6 goals in the last 5 games and also provided 2 assists. He also scored twice in the cup game against Honved. He is not the most valuable player in the Debrecen squad, which is valued at 6,75 million € by transfermarkt.de.

Daniel Tozser is valued at 750,000€ while Adam Bodi is thought to be around 500,000€ and young talented Kevin Varga at 400,000€ mark. Konyves and Tamas Takacs have both scored 8 goals this season while Tozser and keeper Sandor Nagy have made the most appearances. They have only missed on league game so far. There was little change to their squad over the winter. Jan Novotna retired due to injury and he was replaced by Kosicky. Karol Meszaros and Peter Szilvasi departed the football club. InStat has Konyves on (242) points, which is the highest, while Mengolo (241), Tabakovic (240) and Jovanovic (239) follow.
