Vidi travel to Ujpest at the weekend in the OTP league

The OTP league action continues with a visit to Budapest and 3 important points on offer. 

Vidi face Ujpest again after the space of 17 days since the MOL Arena Sosto opening. This time the game will be played in Budapest at the Ferenc Szusza stadium. Vidi have already played a game there and that was the Hungarian Cup tie with Vac. Saturday's league game will kick off at 18:00pm.

Ujpest arrived for the stadium opener in good form having won 2 games previous to that match. However, the match on the 21st Novemeber has since resulted in three games without a win. Those were the home game with Paks and Mezokovesd, which ended in a draw and the defeat to Vidi away. They also went out of the Hungarian cup away at Kaposvar with the winning goal coming right at the end. Giorgi Beridze scored the only goal for Ujpest in those 4 games and that was against Paks. The Georgian has 3 goals to his name so far and another one in the Hungarian cup. Novothny is behind him on 4 goals. 

Their squad is valued at 6,8 million euros according to transfermarkt.de, which is the 6th highest in the NB I. Novothny is valued at 600,000€ with Ristevski just behind on half a million. Ujpest have former Vidi players David Mohl, Filip Pajovic and Donat Zsoter in their squad. 

InStat has Kire Ristevski on 262 points and he arrived in the autumn to the Budapest club. He did not play in the game in Szekesfehervar having played for Macedonia two days before. Bojan Szankovic is on 254 with Bojovic on 253. 

Manager Nebojsa Vignjevic chose the following team in the last league game: Pajovics - Pauljevics, Bojovics, Ristevski, Burekovic - Onovo, Szankovics - Obinna, Zsótér, Beridze - Novothny.

Krisztian Simon remains injured while Mijusko Bojovic did not get into their match squad in the previous game. The lilacs will not have players missing through suspension.
