Ferencvarosi TC vs Trabzonspor Prediction: Key Stats and Betting Tips
Ferencvarosi TC welcome Trabzonspor to Groupama Arena in Budapest on 27 August 2026 for the second leg of their UEFA Europa League play-off tie. After a disciplined 1-0 away win in Trabzon on 20 August, the Hungarian champions return home with a slender but valuable advantage and the chance to finish the job in front of their own fans.
Trabzonspor, meanwhile, arrive under pressure. They failed to score in the first leg at Papara Park and now must find at least one goal on the road against a side that has yet to lose in this Europa League campaign. With group-stage qualification and the associated financial and sporting rewards on the line, this promises to be a tense, tactical encounter rather than a wide-open shootout.
From a betting perspective, this clash between Ferencvarosi TC and Trabzonspor sits in a finely balanced market, with neither side a clear favourite in the match odds despite Ferencvaros’ strong European form. Stats, recent results, and head-to-head history all point to a tight, low-scoring contest that could appeal to bettors looking at result and goals markets rather than high-scoring thrillers.

Ferencvarosi TC vs Trabzonspor — Tale of the Tape
- Position: Not available vs Not available

- Goals Against: 5 vs 1
- Clean Sheets: Ferencvarosi TC 3 vs Trabzonspor 0 (tournament statistics)
Standings data for the play-off round are not listed in a traditional league table, but the broader tournament statistics are revealing. Across 7 Europa League matches this season, Ferencvarosi TC have been consistently effective: 5 wins, 2 draws, no defeats, and an average of 1.7 goals scored per game. Defensively they concede just 0.7 goals per match, underlining a balanced side capable of managing two-legged ties.
Trabzonspor’s sample size is much smaller, with only one Europa League match in this campaign — the 1-0 home defeat to Ferencvaros. That result leaves them with no goals scored, one conceded, and no wins to build on. The Turkish side’s lack of attacking output so far in Europe this season contrasts sharply with Ferencvaros’ proven scoring and defensive record, and it shapes both the tactical outlook and the betting angles for the second leg.
Ferencvarosi TC vs Trabzonspor Key Matchups
B. Yusuf vs Mohamed Salah
B. Yusuf has been a central figure for Ferencvarosi TC in this Europa League campaign. Listed among the top scorers, top assists, and top yellow cards for the competition, he has 1 goal from 2 appearances and has already picked up a yellow card, highlighting both his attacking influence and combative style. Operating as a forward, his ability to stretch defences and contribute in the final third makes him a natural focal point for Ferencvaros’ transitions and set-piece threats.
On the other side, Mohamed Salah is one of Trabzonspor’s standout names in the squad list. While individual Europa League statistics for him this season are not detailed here, his profile and experience suggest he will be central to any attacking improvement from Trabzonspor after their goalless first leg. The duel between Yusuf’s dynamic forward play and Salah’s creative and goal-scoring potential could be decisive: if Ferencvaros can feed Yusuf in dangerous areas, they can punish Trabzonspor’s need to push forward; if Salah finds space between the lines, he could unlock a Ferencvaros defence that has otherwise been very solid.
D. Dibusz vs P. Onuachu
Goalkeeper D. Dibusz, part of Ferencvarosi TC’s experienced core, anchors a defence that has kept 3 clean sheets in 7 Europa League games and never conceded more than 2 goals in a match this campaign. Ferencvaros have also never failed to score in these 7 fixtures, meaning Dibusz often has a platform of attacking support while maintaining focus at the back.
For Trabzonspor, towering striker P. Onuachu offers a very different kind of threat. While his current Europa League stats are not broken out, his profile as a physical, aerially dominant forward suggests Trabzonspor will look to crosses and set pieces to challenge Dibusz and a Ferencvaros back line that has generally coped well with pressure. If Onuachu can impose himself in the box, he gives Trabzonspor a realistic route back into the tie; if Dibusz and his defenders manage that battle, Ferencvaros’ aggregate lead will look increasingly secure.
Head-to-Head: Last Meetings
These clubs are becoming familiar opponents in the Europa League, having met in both the 2022 group stage and now in the 2026 play-offs. The margins have been fine, and home advantage has not always been decisive.
- 20 August 2026: Trabzonspor 0-1 Ferencvarosi TC (UEFA Europa League)
- 03 November 2022: Trabzonspor 1-0 Ferencvarosi TC (UEFA Europa League)
- 08 September 2022: Ferencvarosi TC 3-2 Trabzonspor (UEFA Europa League)
Ferencvarosi TC vs Trabzonspor Prediction
Stats suggest a tight, tactical second leg. Ferencvarosi TC come in with strong momentum: 5 wins and 2 draws in this Europa League campaign, an average of 1.7 goals scored and just 0.7 conceded, plus a 1-0 away win in the first leg. Their recent form index is strong, and they have not failed to score in any of their 7 games. At home, they average 2.0 goals scored and only 0.7 conceded.
Trabzonspor, by contrast, have played only one Europa League match this season — the 1-0 defeat to Ferencvaros — and failed to score. Their last-five form index in European competition is low in attack but surprisingly high in defence, reflecting that they have not been heavily beaten, just lacking cutting edge. The head-to-head pattern shows close contests, and the comparison model gives Ferencvaros a clear edge in form and attack, while Trabzonspor rate better defensively.
The prediction probabilities underline how finely balanced the match result is: Ferencvarosi TC are given a 45% chance of winning in 90 minutes, the draw is also rated at 45%, and Trabzonspor just 10%. That points towards a cautious, low-scoring game where the hosts’ aggregate advantage and defensive solidity should be enough to see them through, even if the match itself is not one-sided.
Predicted Score: Ferencvarosi TC 1-0 Trabzonspor
Ferencvarosi TC Recent Form
Ferencvarosi TC’s recent Europa League form is excellent. Across 7 matches they are unbeaten, with 5 wins and 2 draws, scoring in every game and keeping 3 clean sheets. Their biggest home win has been 3-0, and they have shown an ability to manage leads, conceding a significant share of their goals only late in matches. This consistency underpins their status as favourites to progress.
Trabzonspor Recent Form
Trabzonspor’s Europa League form line for this campaign is limited but negative: a single match, a 1-0 home defeat, and no goals scored. Defensively they were not overrun, conceding just once and that goal coming in the 16–30 minute window, but the lack of attacking output is a concern heading into an away leg where they must score. Their defensive structure, however, suggests they can keep the game close.
Ferencvarosi TC Possible Starting Lineup
Likely key players (grouped by position):
Goalkeepers: D. Dibusz, L. Őri, G. Szécsi, Z. Toth, Á. Varga
Defenders: E. Botka, M. Gómez, C. Lakatos, B. Nagy, Oliver Nagy, A. Osváth, T. Raemaekers, G. Zohoré, Cadu
Midfielders: Adam Bagi, M. Corbu, N. Keïta, A. Madarasz, H. Maïga, Á. Nagy, C. O'Dowda, B. Ötvös, P. Rommens, K. Zachariassen
Forwards: G. Kanichowsky, E. Acolatse, D. Arzani, A. Ćirković, B. Yusuf, Benjámin Gólik, L. Joseph, K. Kodro, F. Kovačević, J. Levi, E. Sevikyan, Szilárd Szabó, Istvan Varga Zeteny
Ferencvarosi TC have predominantly used a 4-3-3 shape in this Europa League campaign (5 matches), occasionally switching to 4-4-2 (1 match). With multiple attacking options — including B. Yusuf, J. Levi, and K. Kodro — they can rotate in the forward line while maintaining goal threat. The presence of experienced midfielders like N. Keïta and Á. Nagy supports a controlled, possession-based approach, while a deep pool of defenders allows them to manage the physicality Trabzonspor are likely to bring.
Trabzonspor Possible Starting Lineup
Likely key players (grouped by position):
Goalkeepers: O. Çevikkan, Erol Colak, A. Onana, A. Yıldırım
Defenders: S. Akaydin, K. Akcay, A. Batagov, S. Lopes Cabral, C. Özkacar, Wagner Pina, S. Savić, A. Tekke, M. Eskihellaç, C. Nwaiwu
Midfielders: B. Bouchouari, Yigithan Cubukcu, O. Ertem, T. Jabol-Folcarelli, M. Kabasakal, R. Malinovskyi, B. Mendy, O. Tufan, O. Yokuşlu, M. Mimaroğlu, E. Muçi, N. Saviolo, A. Şimşir, Mohamed Salah
Forwards: C. Çanak, D. Drăguş, R. Muteba, U. Nayir, P. Onuachu
Trabzonspor lined up in a 4-2-3-1 in their only Europa League match so far this season. With creative midfielders like R. Malinovskyi and O. Tufan, plus forwards such as P. Onuachu and D. Drăguş, they have the tools to pose more of an attacking threat than in the first leg. However, they must balance the need to chase the game with the risk of leaving space for Ferencvaros’ counter-attacks, particularly against quick forwards like B. Yusuf.

Betting Tips: Ferencvarosi TC vs Trabzonspor
Exactly 3 distinct tips from different markets:
- Result Tip: Ferencvarosi TC Draw No Bet. With a 45% win probability for Ferencvaros, 45% for the draw, and only 10% for Trabzonspor, the hosts are more likely to avoid defeat. The match-winner odds show Ferencvaros priced between 2.75 and 2.93 (implied probability roughly 34.1%–36.4%), while Trabzonspor sit between 2.30 and 2.41 (about 41.5%–43.5%). Despite the market’s slight lean to the away side, Ferencvaros’ unbeaten 7-game run and first-leg win make a safety-first home-leaning result bet attractive.
- Goals Tip: Under 3.5 total goals. All 7 of Ferencvaros’ Europa League matches have seen under 3.5 goals, and their goals-for/against averages (1.7 scored, 0.7 conceded) point to controlled contests. Trabzonspor’s only game finished 1-0. The prediction advice also aligns with a low-scoring angle (“Winner Ferencvarosi TC and under 3.5 goals”), reinforcing the expectation of a tight match rather than a goal fest.
- Value Tip: Ferencvarosi TC to qualify. While 90-minute odds slightly favour Trabzonspor, the underlying numbers — Ferencvaros’ 5 wins and 2 draws, 3 clean sheets, and 1-0 aggregate lead — strongly support the hosts’ chances of progressing. With Ferencvaros yet to lose in this Europa League campaign and never failing to score, any qualification market that prices Trabzonspor too close to even money could offer value on the Hungarian side to advance.
