Ferencvaros vs Borac Banja Luka Prediction and Betting Tips (22.08.2024)

Command Analysis

Ferencvaros

Hungary

Current form

Ferencvaros has gained great fame in our country in recent years. From 2021 to 2023, the club was coached by Stanislav Cherchesov, and this summer, it was from this team that Dejan Stankovic came to Spartak Moscow, taking a couple of players with him. The departure of the Serb did not affect the club's results in any way. The wards of the newcomer Pascal Jansen scored the maximum possible nine points at the start and are in their usual first place. We especially note the defense - not a single goal conceded in three rounds.

Things are not going well for the Green Eagles in European competitions. They managed to get through the first round of the Champions League qualification. As expected, the Welsh New Saints were beaten by all accounts with a score of 7:1 on aggregate. But the next stage of the qualification became the last for the team from Budapest. The Danish Midtjylland turned out to be stronger - 0:2 in Herning and 1:1 in Budapest.

Disqualifications and injuries

The team has no problems with its composition.

Interesting trends for betting

In 75% of European Cup matches this season, the Hungarians won in the first half.
Ferencvaros are unbeaten at home in ten games in a row.

Probable lineup : Dibus, Makretskis, Raul Gustavo, Cisse, Ramires, Rommens, Maiga, Traore, Zachariassen, Kehinde, Pesic

Borac Banja Luka

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Current form

The team began its European campaign with the main club tournament – the Champions League, and managed to overcome one round of qualification. The victory in the penalty shootout over the modest Albanian Egnatia should not be considered a great achievement. And at the next stage, PAOK, even without Russian striker Fedor Chalov in the squad, defeated the Bosnians twice (3:2 and 1:0) and sent the team to gain experience in an easier tournament. In the Europa League, the team from Banja Luka was given Faroese Klaksvik as an opponent and again reached extra time in the second match. The Red-Blues turned out to be stronger, scoring the decisive goal in the 93rd minute, which essentially guaranteed their participation in the European Cups.

In the national championship, Borac played only one match, in which they beat Sloboda from Tuzla (2:0). The club is in seventh place in the standings and has two games in reserve.

Disqualifications and injuries

The injured Chetkovic will not help the team.

Tip and bets

1.73handicap (-1.5) at Ferencvarosi

Ferencvaros has not slowed down or become worse after selling Marquinhos and Mienti Abena to Spartak Moscow. The difference in class between the Hungarian and Bosnian champions is huge. The hosts have already played seven official matches this season, losing only one. At the same time, the team from Banja Luka has four defeats in six previous matches. We believe that the Green Eagles will outplay their opponent in all respects.

Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1.5) on Ferencvaros with odds of 1.73

1.72Borac Banja Luka won't score

Betting on Team Goals

It will be very difficult for the visitors to score. Pascal Jansen has worked well in the off-season to build a defensive game. In four home games played in the 2024/25 season, Ferencvaros have conceded only one goal. Borac has a good attacking line, but in today's match the Bosnians will simply have no chance to score.

Prediction - Borac Banja Luka will not score with odds of 1.72

Bet on total

The Hungarians have had no results in their last five matches both in the national championship and in European competitions. This is the team's current style of play. The visitors, on the contrary, act in an open manner on the field with a clear focus on the opponent's goal, but today they will most likely close in defense. We recommend paying attention to the low total.

Betting Tip - total under 2.5 goals with odds of 2.40
