Thomas Doll's side have played 20 matches and collected 31 points. FTC have won 8 times, drawn 7 and lost 5 over the 2016/2017 season. A total of 34 goals have been scored and 27 conceded at the other end. Top goalscorer with 8 goals is Marco Djuricin. Saturday's opponents have played 10 games on their home pitch and picked up maximum points in half of those. Only Vasas and Paks have come away from the Groupama Arena with 3 points.
