Hungary vs Kazakhstan: Prediction, facts, betting tips and head-to-head – June 9, 2026
Hungary and Kazakhstan will meet in an international friendly on Tuesday, June 9, with kick-off scheduled for 19:00 CET. I have a betting recommendation for this fixture.
Hungary vs Kazakhstan: Match Preview
Despite becoming regular participants at the European Championship in recent years, Hungary once again fell short in their attempt to qualify for the World Cup. At the decisive stage of the campaign, a defeat in a crucial head-to-head encounter allowed Ireland to secure second place in the group. As a result, the Hungarians will miss out on another major international tournament. Since the conclusion of qualifying, they have played three friendly matches, winning two and drawing one. This autumn, they will begin their UEFA Nations League campaign in League B.
Kazakhstan did not produce any major surprises last year. The team once again failed to qualify for the World Cup and finished second from bottom in their qualifying group. Six of their eight points came in matches against Liechtenstein. However, during the FIFA Series fixtures in March, the Kazakhs managed to defeat Namibia and the Comoros. A few days ago, they faced Armenia in a friendly and earned a 1–1 draw.
Match Facts and Head-to-Head
- Hungary are unbeaten in their last three matches, as are Kazakhstan.
- Neither of these teams will be competing at the 2026 World Cup.
- Kazakhstan have scored at least one goal in three consecutive matches.
- The most recent meeting between these sides ended in a 3–2 victory for Kazakhstan.
Probable Lineups

Prediction
I believe Hungary will be able to continue their strong run of results in friendly matches on home soil. My recommended bet is Hungary to score over 2.5 goals.
