Two in-form teams meet on Saturday at the Sóstói Stadion.
On Saturday at 15:30, we will face our county rivals for the 27th time in the first division. In the 26 meetings so far, we have won 10 of them and drawn 6 and lost 6. The goal difference is 38-26 in our favour, an average of 2.4 goals per game.
PAFC's head coach Zsolt Hornyák is the longest serving head coach at the same team in the whole NB I. So far, we have played 14 matches against PAFC when they have been under Zsolt Hornyák, the first one was four years ago, on the 11th August 2019, when we won 2-0 in Felcsút, with goals scored by Szabolcs Huszti and Márkó Futács, and Vidi's head coach was Marko Nikolics.
Zsolt Hornyák has a positive record against Vidi, with 5 wins, 6 draws and 3 defeats in the 14 games he has managed. We have been winless in our last nine league games against them, with three defeats and six draws. We last beat our county rivals 3-1 in September 2020 with goals from Nikolics, Petrjak and Zivzivadze.
Like us, PAFC are in good form, with their last defeat in the league coming in September, when they lost 2-0 to Paks in Felcsút. Since then, they have won three games (PAFC - Kisvárda 1-0, MTK - PAFC 0-5, Újpest - PAFC 1-2) and drawn four (ZTE - PAFC 1-1, PAFC - DVSC 1-1, PAFC - DVTK 0-0, PAFC - FTC 1-1).
PAFC's most successful player is Jakub Plsek with five goals.
