Vidi go in to the match with an advantage and they need to live with this.
Vidi picked up a one goal advantage against Dukla in the first leg match in Szekesfehervar. The professionals, journalists and also the players are working out whether the lead will be enough. The signs were not necessarily bad, with the journalists present in Prague noting that a full house was not expected, and even half the stadium being full! Bohemians are the more popular side in that city than Dukla. The rain fell all day on the 2nd October, which coach Gabor Hartyani feels does not represent a disadvantage.
The Hungarian sides in European competition such as the European Cup, saw Honved lose 3-1 against Swiss side Grasshoppers. Raba ETO suffered a 3-0 defeat to Manchester United, while Siofok managed only a draw against Greek side Larissza in the Cup Winners Cup. This means that Vidi have the best chance of making it through to the next round.
500 supporters will be following their side from Szekesfehervar, to back their side in the match and help Vidi in to the next round. Several of those fans arrived in Prague the day before the game, and watched their teams training session as a result. The team had breakfast at 9:00am on Monday morning, leaving from Budapest on the day before the game.
