Vidi will face a Ferencvaros side that are unbeaten in a month and a half

Thomas Doll's team last tasted defeat on the 4th October in the league. They are currently in 6th place and 2 points from third place.

Ferencvaros ended last season in third place, which secured them a place in the Europa League. They beat Maltese side Sliema Wanderers in the first qualification round, with a 3-2 aggregate score. Croatian side Rijeka were next but the green and whites exited the cup after losing 1-0 and 2-1.

Several key players departed the club over the summer including Muhamed Besic, Leonardo and Julian Jenner. Zoltan Gera returned to Ferencvaros after 10 years playing in England. Further signings were Benjamin Lauth, Emir Dilaver and Roland Lamah.

Thomas Doll's side started the season with a win over Kecskemet, but suffered a shock defeat at Lombard Papa. They have had an indifferent autumn season, with losses against MTK, Ujpest and DVTK. However, they have not lost in their last four matches, winning 3-2 most recently against Kispest. Daniel Bode is the current top goalscorer with 6 goals to his name this season.

Fradi have won their last two league matches in Szekesfehervar, including the most recent that was played on the 8th December 2013, and ended in a 3-2 win for the Budapest club.
