Vasas take on the visitors Ferencvaros at “Groupama Arena” in the final clash of the Hungarian Cup. The match will be played in Budapest on Wednesday, May 31st.
After the season’s ending Vasas found themselves at the third place in the OTP Bank Liga standings with 52 points gained and 50-40 goal difference. The side took the bronze medals mostly because of its successful performance against Ferencvaros which earned the same number of points, however, Michael Oenning’s team had gotten advantage in the opponents’ head-to-heads. Having entered the Hungarian Cup in the 1/64 stage, Vasas knocked out Testveriseg 4:0, Csornai 7:2, Gyor 3:2, Dorogi 2:1, 4:0, Ujpest 2:1, 0:1 and Mezokovesd-Zsory 2:0, 5:0 in the semi-final. The team conducted nine encounters in the Cup resulting in eight triumphs and one loss with 29-7 goal difference.

Despite all their efforts, Ferencvaros didn’t manage to win medals of the OTP Bank Liga. The side finished the season sitting on the fourth position in the table with 52 points earned and 54-44 goal difference after 33 rounds. As a result, the champion of the OTP Bank Liga in season 2016 was left without medals in 2017 season. And now the “Zold Sasok” will do their best to defend the Hungarian Cup’s title which they won last year as a part of the golden trophies double. This season Ferencvaros knocked out BKV Elore 1:0, Koronco 9:0, Puskas Academy 2:1, Honved 2:1, 2:0, DVTK 2:1, 0:0 and Budafoki 8:0, 4:2 in the semi-final of the Hungarian Cup. Consequently, the team’s statistics in the Hungarian Cup are as follows: nine matches played, eight victories, one draw, 30 goals for and five goals against.
The rivals met three times in this season recording 2:2 draw and two triumphs in favour of Vasas with the same 2:1 scoreline. It should be noted that their five recent head-to-heads were with a number of scored goals: the teams combined at least three goals in each clash. Thus, I believe that the forthcoming final will not be an exception from that sequence.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
