DVTK vs Paks Prediction: Paks to have a good start

DVTK and Paks will play their first league game of the season on Sunday at the Diósgyőri Stadion. DVTK finished last season 7th on the table, and Paks finished second. Below are previews, H2H, expert betting tips, and odds.

After finishing 7th in the 2023/2024 season, DVTK have played lots of games in preparation for this season. They took only 40 days off for holiday before they returned to the pitch, and they were able to play 6 preseason friendlies. They had 4 wins in the friendlies and only suffered 2 losses.

In the transfer market, Sinisa Sanicanin (center-back), Karlo Sentic (goalkeeper), Mohammed Rharsalla (left winger), Marko Rakonjac (center-forward), Uros Drezgic (center-back), Marcell Huszár (center-forward), and Zétény Varga (right winger) were all signed to increase their squad depth.

Paks had a 2023/2024 season to remember, finishing second on the table and winning the Hungary Cup with a 2-0 win over Ferencvaros. The second place ensured they qualified for a chance to participate in Europe. However, they suffered a 4-2 aggregate loss to Hunedoara, but they seem to be cool in the Conference League qualification after recording a 3-0 win over AEK Larnaca in the first leg of the qualification quarterfinal. However, after parting ways with Olivér Tamás and Norbert Könyves, they made two additions to their squad with Bence Ötvös and Dávid Zimonyi.

Both sides have played 20 games since 2016. DVTK won 8, Paks won 9 and 3 games ended in draws. The last match between the two sides ended 2-1 in favor of Paks.

Paks had their best season ever last season, and they don’t seem to have relented in their effort to fight the big boys in the league. With this, I see them getting a win here. However, both sides are expected to score in this game. The last 4 games between the two sides have seen the BTTS result.
