FTC visits the MOL Arena Sóstó on Sunday

In the 24th round of the OTP Bank Liga NB I, on Sunday at 17:00 the league leader FTC will visit the MOL Arena Sóstó. 

The Green and Whites lead the table with a 5-point advantage after 23 rounds. With 14 wins, they have drawn 4 times and lost 5 games. So far this season we have played Ferencváros twice in the league, losing 1-0 at home and 3-0 at the Groupama Arena. Last week, FTC progressed through to the last four of the MOL Hungarian Cup after beating Budapest Honvéd 1-0 away. 

During the winter transfer window, several key players arrived in the IX district, while Uzuni left for the Spanish top division. The Green and Whites also have a new head coach from January, as Peter Stöger was replaced by Stanislav Cherchesov, who was the national team manager of the Russian national team from 2016-2021, and before that, he was at Legia Warsaw, where he celebrated the 2016 title - the top scorer with 28 goals was our captain Nemanja Nikolic.

In 2022, the FTC has already played 7 league matches, as the match against Puskás Akadémia FC was postponed in the autumn due to the FTC's international participation. Ferencváros has won three league games (Újpest - FTC 0-1, ZTE - FTC 1-3, FTC - Kisvárda 2-1), while two draws (MTK - FTC 0-0, FTC - Gyirmót 1-1) and two defeats (PAFC - FTC 1-0, FTC - Paks 0-3).

Ferencváros's top scorer is Ryan Mmaee with 9 goals, who has scored against us in both league games this season - we hope to break the striker's streak on Sunday.
