Videoton have not won at Debrecen in 9 year. That can all change on Sunday evening
Videoton travel east at the weekend, when they face upto Debrecen, on Sunday. The pair have met 56 times in league games, and Gyorgy Mezey's side will be looking to break a 9 year record, which has seen Vidi unable to win there. The first game was back in the 1979/80 season, when the two met in weekend 4 of that league season. The game at the Sostoi stadium, ended in a 1-1 draw, with Gyozo Burcsa netting for Vidi. Debrecen enjoy a better record overall, with 18 wins to Vidi, 23 to 'Loki' and 14 drawn matches out of the 55 to date. The overall goal count also favours Debrecen, 82-65.
The record away in Debrecen has seen only 3 wins out of the 28 played there. That includes 18 home wins, and 7 draws, which shows just how tough it is to get a result there. A full build up to the big game will take place here at www.vidi.hu Current Vidi international defender, Zoltan Liptak has managed to find the back of the Debrecen net twice, which makes him joint top scorer overall.
