A look back at games between Videoton and Debrecen

Debrecen arrive at the Sostoi stadium on Sunday for one of the biggest league games of the season

It's a return to league action on Sunday with a 16:30pm kick off against Debrecen. The Sostoi stadium will host the second big match of the week against a side, which has won so much over the last few years. Debrecen are the only other club besides Videoton, which has made it into the group stages of the Europa league. 

Sunday's match will be the 30th to have been played in Szekesfehervar. Although the stats are on the side of Vidi, it would be worth taking into consideration that the red and blues have only been able to beat Debrecen 5 times at home this century. Loki, as they are also known, have managed to win twice at the Sostoi, while three games have been drawn in the last 12 years.

Looking further back into the past, it is clear to see that Videoton have enjoyed the lion's share of wins. The first game at the Sostoi between the two, was back in 1979 with the match ending 1-1. The pair met two years later, and Debrecen emerged winners in that match in 1981. They had to wait 19 years until 2000 for their next win. Vidi have beaten Debrecen 11 times, while drawing 3 games in the 14 matches to date.
