Ferencvarosi TC vs FK Viktoria Plzen Predictions

Can Ferencvaros Turn The Tables On Viktoria Plzen In Budapest?

• Ferencvaros’ goal machine: The Hungarians have scored 14 goals in six league matches this season, showing their attack is rarely kept quiet for long spells.
• Defensive gaps for FTC: They have conceded at least twice in four of their last six matches, highlighting their ongoing issues at the back.
• Plzen’s travelling pattern: The Czech side have won twice in their last four away fixtures, but both wins came against lower-level opposition, showing vulnerability against stronger sides.

Best Bet for Ferencvarosi TC vs FK Viktoria Plzen

The Europa League is back, and Groupama Arena will be buzzing when Ferencvaros host Viktoria Plzen on Thursday night. These two already know each other well after last season’s play-off battle, when the Czech outfit came out on top with a 3-1 aggregate win. That memory still stings for the Hungarians, who now have a chance at revenge under the lights in Budapest.

Ferencvaros come into this game in decent form domestically, sitting fourth in Hungary with 11 points and an impressive 14 goals scored in just six league matches. Yet their home record is patchy, and going three games at Groupama without a victory is not something their supporters will be patient about. Viktoria Plzen, meanwhile, were recently undone by rivals Sparta Prague, but overall their away results have been respectable, with two wins from their last four on the road. This one has all the makings of a tense contest, where small details and cool heads will likely decide the outcome.

Best Bet For This Match

At BettingTips4You, we do things differently. We are not about throwing ten different options at you and hoping one sticks. We provide just one Best Bet per game, the single selection that we believe carries the most value. For this Europa League encounter, the best play is Both Teams To Score and Ferencvaros to avoid defeat (Double Chance).

Why? Because the numbers and patterns point in that direction. Ferencvaros may not have won at home recently, but they remain dangerous in attack. Barnabas Varga, leading the line, has been a reliable outlet, while the support from Lenny Joseph offers pace and unpredictability. Behind them, a midfield three of Naby Keita, Jonathan Levi and Gabi Kanichowsky can all pick passes and create chances. This explains why FTC have netted at least twice in nine of their 13 matches this season.

Defensively though, the Hungarians are far from watertight, conceding two or more in four of their last six. That is where Viktoria Plzen come in. Even though they are inconsistent in Europe, they usually manage to find the net — one goal in three of their last four matches is hardly sparkling, but with attackers like Matej Vydra and Rafiu Durosinmi on the pitch, they are always a threat to punish mistakes.

What strengthens the case further is Plzen’s own fragility away from home. Losing to Sparta shows they can be rattled when the crowd is on top of them, and Groupama Arena will not make life easy. Ferencvaros’ home drought feels like it is due a turnaround, and even if they don’t get all three points, they should have enough firepower to ensure they are not beaten.

As BettingTips4You.com expert Gerard Gabasa puts it:

“This clash is finely poised, but Ferencvaros’ attack looks too lively to be silenced, while their defence too shaky to keep a clean sheet. Backing both sides to score with Ferencvaros holding their own feels spot on.

All things considered, the most likely correct score is 2-2, a result that fits the narrative: goals at both ends, Ferencvaros strong going forward but unable to shut the back door completely.
