Ferencváros vs Kecskeméti TE Prediction: An easy start for the hosts

Ferencváros will start their title defence here against Kecskeméti after their round 1 fixture was postponed. Ferencváros have won the league in the last six seasons, and it appears they are on the course for a record 7th title in a row. Can they start the title defence with a win? Below are previews, head-to-head statistics, expert betting tips, and odds.

Ferencváros

Ferencváros secured their 6th title last season with 74 points in 33 games. They were 16 points ahead of second-placed Paks and 29 points ahead of 2022/2023 runners-up Kecskemeti. They were given time to prepare for their UEFA Champions League qualification clashes last weekend, and their match was postponed until further notice. They defeated TNS 7-1 on aggregate in the quarter-final of the Champions League qualification and will now battle Midtjylland in the semifinals of the qualifications. FTC and Fradi have remained unbeaten in their last eight games since the end of last season. At home, they are unbeaten in their last 12 games.

Kecskeméti TE

After an incredible 2022/2023 season where they finished second, Kecskeméti's performance last season was not up to expectations. They finished 6th on the table with 45 points. They were 29 points behind champions Ferencváros. They were average in their preseason clashes, where they won 1, drew four and lost 1 of the six games played.

Kecskeméti were held to a goalless draw in their first game of the season by Fehervar FC. They remain unbeaten in their last three games in all competitions and are unbeaten in 4 of their last five away games.

H2H

Both sides have played 20 times since 2010. Ferencváros won 11, Kecskeméti won 4, and 5 games ended in draws. The last game between the two sides ended in a 2-0 win for Ferencváros. Also, Ferencváros are unbeaten against Kecskeméti in their last 13 meetings at this venue.

Expert Betting Tips

Ferencváros were excused from league actions last weekend, and they now have their full focus on the league this weekend. They have always shown their superiority in the league and beyond. No doubt, they have my backing in this clash as well. However, I expect Kecskeméti to find a consolation in this clash.
