Ujpest at home in the spring league opener

Ujpest go into the spring season in sixth place in the OTP league table. They have won 6 of their 19 league games to date and drawn 9 and lost the remaining 4 matches. A total of 30 goals have been scored and 26 conceded at the other end. Top goalscorer with 8 goals to his name is Enis Bardhi. Ujpest last tasted defeat on the 17th September 2016. That was in a 7 goal thriller against Vidi. The match ended in a 4-3 win for the red and blues of Fehervar. The 10 games since then have resulted in 2 wins and 8 draws. There was limited movement to their playing squad over the winter months. Tibor Nagy was the only player to leave the Budapest club when he joined DVTK.

Nebojsa Vignjevic took his squad to Cyprus for pre-season at the start of February. The 12 day camp included 3 friendly games against Lech Poznan (1-1), Levski Sofia (1-2), and Teplice, which produced a 1-0 win.
