Videoton return to league action on Saturday with a visit to Mezokovesd who were promoted to the first division in the summer.
It will be the fourth time that Videoton will come up against Mezokovesd in a first division match on Saturday afternoon. The two teams first met on the 8th November 2013 in the highest division. A Kleinheisler goal was enough to give Vidi a 1-0 win that day. The two met again in the spring of 2014 and this time the points were shared in a 1-1 draw. Saturday's opponents were later relegated that season. They soon returned to the first division and August saw the visit of Mezokovesd in a game played at the Pancho Arena. That produced a 2-0 win and three points for Henning Berg's side.
Attila Pinter's team have been quite balanced this season. They have won 5, drawn 5 and lost 6 times, scoring 16 and conceding 19 goals. Top goalscorers are Marek Strestik and Ulysse Diallo with 3 goals each. Mezokovesd have most recently drawn with Debrecen and beaten MTK, Haladas and Gyirmot. That puts them in seventh place in the OTP league table. They most recently lined-up as follows: Tujvel - Mevoungou (Egerszegi), Gohér, Diallo, Devecseri, Strestik, Kink (Pauljevic), Bacelic-Grgic (Molnár), Vági, Hudák, Szeles.
