Ferencvárosi TC
Ferencvárosi TC, coached by Robbie Keane, advanced past Ludogorets Razgrad with a 3-0 win (3-0 aggregate) in the third qualifying round on August 12, 2025. Their recent form includes three wins and two losses in five competitive matches, averaging 2.4 goals scored and 1.2 conceded. Key players include Zsombor Gruber (3 goals, 2 assists in 3 UCL matches), Barnabás Varga, and Naby Keïta, with a probable 4-2-3-1 lineup: Gróf; Botka, Nagy, Raemaekers, Cissé; Keïta, Maïga; Gruber, Zachariassen, Joseph; Varga. Strengths include their attacking output (7 goals in 3 UCL qualifiers) and home form (unbeaten in last 5 home games), but Krisztián Lisztes’s muscle injury and a recent 2-0 league loss to Puskás Akadémia are concerns. They aim to take a lead into the second leg, leveraging their home advantage.
