Viktoria Plzen vs Ferencvaros Prediction and Betting Tips | February 20th 2025

Viktoria Plzen and Ferencvaros return to action in the UEFA Europa League when they lock horns in the second leg of their knockout-stage playoff clash on Thursday. The Hungarian outfit, who have failed to win their three away matches this year, will journey to the Doosan Arena looking to snap this run and build on their first-leg victory.

Viktoria Plzen picked up a morale-boosting result ahead of their return to Europa League action as they secured a 2-0 victory over Teplice in the Czech 1. Liga on Sunday.

Before that, Miroslav Koubek’s men suffered a blow in their quest for European glory as they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Ferencvaros in Hungary last Thursday.

Viktoria Plzen will be backing themselves to turn the tie on its head and secure a place in the last 16 as they return to the Doosan Arena, where they are unbeaten in 16 of their 17 competitive matches this season.

Israeli midfielder Mohammad Abu Fani grabbed the headlines for Ferencvaros at the Groupama Arena as he netted the only goal of the game in the 23rd minute to hand them a first-leg advantage over Plzen.

Robbie Keane’s men had secured four wins and lost three of their seven Europa League group-stage games to finish 17th in the standings with 12 points from a possible 24.

Ferencvaros head into Thursday’s clash fresh off the back of a 2-0 defeat against Paksi in the Hungarian NB I, where they have picked up 36 points from 20 games to sit second in the table.
