Trabzonspor vs Ferencvarosi TC — Tips & Analysis

Ferencvarosi TC +1: This is the ready team against the rusty one. Ferencvaros have played their way through three European qualifying rounds and have not lost away in them. Trabzonspor have had one competitive game since 22 May, a 1-1 at Kasimpasa. That is a lot of rust to shake off on a big night. Ferencvaros have won 10 of their last 16 games and lost only 2. They score almost 2 goals a game, let in less than one, and have lost by 2 or more just once in those 16 games. Trabzonspor are hard to beat at home, with only 2 defeats in their last 16. They are not a team who run games away from people though, winning by 2 or more in just 3 of those 16. The hosts are also missing Arseniy Batagov, Tim Jabol-Folcarelli and Ernest Muci. Okay Yokuslu is short of match fitness. Ferencvaros report no fresh injuries. Papara Park will be loud and Trabzonspor will push hard early. Fradi are comfortable soaking that up and hitting back on the counter, and they have tied three of their last five. A 1-1 is the likeliest score, and that is a winning night for this pick. The catch is the turnaround. Ferencvaros played on 17 August and have three days' rest to Trabzonspor's five, so tired legs late on are a worry. We are still with the visitors to keep this tight.
