Prediction: 2-2
Ferencvaros
Klaksvik will be looking to claim a major scalp in the Champions League first qualifying round when they take on Hungarian champions Ferencvaros in the double-header. The Faroe Islands outfit are leading the chase for the domestic title, with the team keeping their 100% record intact with a 2-0 win over HB Torshavn. The White-Blues look unstoppable at the moment, but they will have a mountain to climb in Tuesday’s encounter.
The Greens, on the other hand, did well to beat Botosani 3-0 in their last warm-up game, but defeating the in-form hosts at Vid Djupumyrar is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Morocco international Ryan Mmaee, who is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line.
Highlighted Team (Ferencvaros):
Established back in 1899, Ferencvaros are the most successful Hungarian club. The Zold Sasok clinched their 30th domestic trophy in the 2018/2019 season, but they eventually failed to book their place in the Champions League. Dinamo Zagreb proved to be a big catch for Ferencvaros in the Champions League play-offs, but the Green Eagles booked their spot in the Europa League group stages for the first time ever the same season.
Ferencvaros are well known for their green and white home kit, but they wear white shirts and white shorts when playing on the travels. Ujpest are considered the club’s fiercest rivals, whilst Ferencvaros and MTK Budapest face each other in the Eternal derby.
Honved are seen as the club’s bitter rivals as well. Back in 1975 the Zold Sasok made it to the UEFA Cup Winner’s Cup, with the team losing to Ukrainian club Dynamo Kiev in the title game. Sandor Kocsis, who scored 75 goals in 68 appearances for the Hungarian national team, is the club’s most notable footballer.
