Sunday's opponents ended last season in 8th place having picked up 44 points. They showed good form throughout the second half of the season, finishing the spring season as the 5th best club over the second part of the season. Haladas have not been too successful when they have faced Videoton.

Adam Simon's loan deal has also ended with the player returning to Palermo. Former favourite player Krisztian Kenesei has move to first division side Papa. Haladas have been interested in Daniel Vadnai from MTK, while a major plus for them was that striker Andras Rado remained at the club.

The young forward mentioned in an interview on his club's own website, that Videoton are one of the hardest teams that they could have received to start the new season, but they will not go out onto the pitch with their hands up. He also added that they would do everything possible to get the best result.
