Vidi up against a Haladas side that have no lost so far in spring

Three important points are up for grabs at the Rohonci street stadium on Wednesday

Haladas have picked up 27 points from their 21 league matches to date. They currently sit in 11th place in the OTP league table, having won 6, drawn 9 and lost the remaining 6 games this season. The green and whites drew their most recent league game at home to Ferencvaros, after the pair played out a 0-0 draw. They also picked up a point from each of their two games before that at Paks and Diosgyőr. Tamas Artner's side managed to come from behind in the first match of spring, when they socred twice to beat Siofok 2-1. Vidi last faced Haladas on the 31st October in the Hungarian cup. That match saw two goals from Nikolics in extra time, make the difference in a 2-0 win at the Sostoi. The earlier league match ended in a 2-1 win for Videoton, after Adam Gyurcso netted twice.

It was a fairly quiet winter transfer window for Haladas, with just Andras Simon arriving back at the club following his loan period at Győri ETO. Three players left the club with Gabor Korolovszky heading for Nyiregyhaza. Zoltan Nagy made the move to ZTE, while Daniel Nagy returned back to the Sostoi. The winger has since linked up with the second team at Felcsut. The dangerman looks likely to be forward Krisztian Kenesei, who has netted 6 times in 13 league matches. He is closely followed by Bence Iszlai, who has scored 5 goals in 19 matches. 

The two sides have faced each other 67 times, with 34 wins for the red and blues of Fehervar. A further 13 games have been drawn, while Vidi enjoy a goal difference of 114-79. The first league match between the pair ended in a 2-1 win to Haladas at Szombathely. Vidi's goal in that match came from Laszlo Karsai.
