Ferencváros host Viktoria Plzeň at the Groupama Arena on Thursday, 15 October, at 21:00 Budapest time in Matchday 2 of the Europa League league phase. Both FTC and the Czech club confirm the kick-off. Another win would add three points to those earned in Glasgow, taking FTC to six from their opening two fixtures.
Three scorers, different routes to goal
Yusuf, Zachariassen and Arzani all scored in the 3–1 victory at Celtic. An intriguing point to watch on Thursday is whether Fradi can again create chances for several players. Different finishing options become particularly valuable when opponents close off the first attacking route.
Plzeň opened with a 0–3 defeat against Union Saint-Gilloise. In Budapest, the visitors will be seeking their first points while FTC aim to build on a strong start. An opening result alone cannot decide the next fixture.
The question after Debrecen: how will FTC start?
Zachariassen's assessment of the DVSC draw highlighted intensity and missed chances. From the opening minutes, spectators can watch how quickly FTC react to losing possession and how consistently they reach the opposition goal. These are BSR's analytical observation points; Thursday's starting eleven has not been confirmed.
