Adam Farkas will referee the home match against MTK

The 32 year old match official last refereed a Vidi match against Kaposvar last season.

The match official joined the division two group of referee's back in 2007. He stepped up to the first division a year later, before making his debut in the MTK - Kaposvar match on the 21st February 2009. He has been voted top official of the year twice over recent seasons.

It is interesting to note that Adam Farkas was the first match official in Hungary, who refereed a key game involving two assistant referee's, a fourth official and two further offcials behind each goal. This took place in the Debrecen - Vidi League cup quarter final match last March.

Farkas was the match referee when Vidi won 2-1 away at Papa. He was most recently in charge of last season's league match, which ended in a 2-0 victory over Kaposvar. He will be assisted in Saturday's game by Peter Berettyan, Gabor Takacs, with Tamas Markus being the fourth official.
