Trabzonspor vs Ferencvaros Analysis
Must win game at home for Trabzonspor in the Europa League on Thursday as they entertain top-of-the-table Ferencvaros over in Turkey this midweek.
Ferencvaros took the win in the reverse fixture earlier in the season with a pulsating 3-2 victory over in Hungary in what was the two team’s first-ever meeting in a European competition.
The Hungarian champions will know a result here isn’t needed on Thursday in order to qualify for the knockout round, but they’ll no doubt want to finish strong nonetheless ranking as Hungary’s only ever team to make it through to the knockout stage of a major European tournament.
Europe Hasn’t Always Been The Best Hunting Ground For Ferencvaros Over Seasons Past
Despite an excellent season so far this year with the ‘Green & Whites’ ranking top of the group overall with 10 points gained from their opening five games, Europe hasn’t always been so generous to the Hungarian champions over seasons past.
Three of Ferencvaros’ four wins in Europa League history have come in just this campaign, and they bring a record of just four clean sheets over their last nineteen Europa League appearances into Thursday’s matchup as well.
Fate Taken Out Of Trabzonspor’s Hands
Trabzonspor desperately need a win in this game to have any chance of progressing through to the knockout stage, but even that mightn’t be enough here as they also need Monaco to slip up at home in the other game in this group against Red Star Belgrade.
The Turkish side should be confident however of at least fulfilling the first part as they bring in one of Europe’s longest home unbeaten streaks into Thursday’s game, going an impressive W21, D10, L0 over their last 31 matches in Medical Park Stadium.
Trabzonspor vs Ferencvaros Prediction
Despite the need for Trabzonspor to win here, plus Ferencvaros needing nothing from the game either, getting a full goal headstart here on the group table-toppers looks generous, and we like the Hungarian side to cover on Thursday.
This is a scenario we’ve seen play out across Europe before with teams such as Arsenal in the Europa League, where more established players are rested giving younger players the opportunity to shine and eventually earn their way onto the first-team set-up, something Ferencvaros’ younger batch of players will no doubt take advantage of this week as well.
If news also filters through of a dominant Monaco display early in their game against Red Star Belgrade as well, confidence may well start to sag in the Turkish camp, so we’ll take Ferencvaros +1 on Thursday to cover on the road against Trabzonspor over in the Europa League.
Prediction: Ferencvaros +1 -120
