Vidi entertain eighth place Ujpest on Sunday evening

Ujpest are the visitors to the MOL Arena Sosto on Sunday evening with 3 points on offer.

Ujpest visit us on Sunday evening sitting in eighth place in the league table. The team from the capital have won 10, drawn 5 and lost 13 of their 28 league matches this season. They have collected 35 points, which is the same amount of goals they have scored, while also conceding 40. Former Vidi forward Robert Feczesin played 97 times for Vidi scoring 46 goals. He joined Ujpest just after the start of this season but left the club during the winter transfer window having scored 8 goals in his 3 months with the club. Our opponents changed their manager two weeks ago having been under the management of Serbian Nebojsa Vignjevic since October 2013. Pedrag Rogan has replaced him and he has guided his side to two straight wins. The first was against Honved with a 1-0 win, while DVSC were beaten 3-1 in midweek. That has seen them move away from the relegation zone.

We have already played Ujpest twice this season. We lost 2-0 to them at home back in September, before winning 1-0 away in Budapest in February. This will be the 111th league game between Vidi and Ujpest. We have won 47 of those with 40 having seen Ujpest win and the remaining 20 ending in a draw. Sunday's game will be the 56th home game against them and we have won 27 from the 55 already played. The game back in September 2019 had brought to an end a run of 13 games over 12 years where we did not lose to the lilacs at home.
