Videoton will run out on to the Sostoi pitch as champions
Weekend fixtures Friday 13th May Saturday 14th May Sunday 15th May | ||
Videoton's 3-1 home win over Kaposvar on Wednesday evening ended up in great scenes of celebrations, as the three points meant that the club picked up their first league title in their history. The fans and players celebrated late into the night, and early morning, but this Saturday sees Videoton face Győri ETO in a Monicomp league match. Győr have had a mixed season, which began very well, with the club competing in the Europa League. They made it through three rounds, just failing to make the group stages. Since then, they have not faired as well as they would have liked to in the Monicomp league, which eventually cost Attila Pinter his job. Aurel Csertoi has since taken over, and has done a steady job to date.
Friday's games include second in the table Paks at home to Vasas. ZTE and Debrecen will be desperate for the three points on offer, when the two meet at 19:00pm. Saturday has five games in total. Honved kick off early against Ujpest, in a Budapest derby match. It hasn't been the best of seasons for either club. Videoton kick off at 17:30pm against Győr, while there are three matches kicking off at 19:00pm. Those are the Papa -MTK game, where anything less than three points for MTK will see them relegated. Kaposvar take on bottom side Szolnok, with KTE, Vidi's cup opponents next Tuesday, at home to Siofok. The final match of the weekend will be on Sunday, when Haladas will play third in the league table, Ferencvaros. A large crowd is expected for that match, while it is hoped that the Sostoi stadium, in Fehevar will also enjoy a higher attendance, and a real party atmosphere for all.
