Week ahead: Cup match away at Pecs and Ujpest away in the league

A busy week of league and cup football for Henning Berg and his team. 

Hungarian Cup - Round 6
Wednesday 14th September 2016, 18.00 
Pécsi MFC - Videoton FC

Videoton enter the Hungarian cup competition with a trip south to Pecs. Vidi's cup opponents are in 5th place in the third division currently. The last game between the two took place in the 2014-15 season when Pecs were still in the first division. Videoton won both the home and away game against them that season. Problems with the license resulted in the Hungarian FA demoting them, which is why they are playing their football in the third tier at the moment. Pecs won their county first division league last season to gain promotion. The match will be decided over one game.

OTP league - week 9
Saturday 17th September 2016, 18.30 
Újpest FC - Videoton FC

The league season continues with a visit to Budapest and a match against Ujpest. The lilacs lost 2-1 at the weekend at Debrecen. They have picked up 13 points so far this season, which is the same as Vidi. However, Videoton enjoy a better goal difference to sit in fourth place. The game will be played at Vasas' Rudolf Illovszky stadium on Saturday as Ujpest are currently redeveloping their own stadium.
