On August 14, the return match of the 1/2 finals of the Conference League qualification will be held at the Sosto, in which Fehervar will play against Omonia. An announcement and prediction from Dailysports experts is available.
“Fehervar”
The team in the interval 2011-2018 became the national champion three times, adding the Hungarian Cup-2019. But then, despite all the support from the local prime minister, Orbán, Vidi was pushed back at least by Ferencvaros, that dominates the national level now almost unchallenged. And last season, with just 54 points in 33 games, the club finished fourth.
A new cycle has already begun, and the team finished with only a nil draw in the first round, against Kecskemet, and only a week later beat 3-1 Gyoshdjor. However, this was offset by a 1-4 defeat to Ujpest. In parallel, a new international saga began. In the last round in Sumgait, having allowed Azerbaijanis to open the scoring, they finished with a 2-1 away win. After that, a zero draw at home was enough. They didn't score in Cyprus either, but still conceded once.
"Omonia"
The club is rightly considered one of the most titled in the country. In 2021, they took their 21st championship. And then, twice in a row, in 2022-2023, they won the Cyprus Cup. And only last season turned out to be "empty", did not bring any trophies. But at the same time, having finished the regular part of the championship in fifth place, then, in the "championship pool" the team rose two positions, closing the top-3.
This is what allows them to play in the European Cup again. The first opponent in the Conference League qualification was Torpedo Kutaisi. The Georgians were eventually beaten in both games - 3-1 in Cyprus, with Koulibaly's double, and 2-1 in the Caucasus. With the Hungarians at home, the advantage was converted into a goal and therefore a win.

Fehervar vs Omonia Prediction
Bookmakers consider the guests from Cyprus as the favorite, albeit nominal. But the main thing for them is not to lose and, therefore, not to concede - we expect "total less than 2.5 goals" (odds - 1.97).
