Several key players left KTE over the summer, including Lajus Bertus, David Mohl, Rafael Burgos, Yannick Mbengono, Euguene Salami and Tamas Vasko. Saturday's opponents did not bring in similar big named players, relying on younger talents or unknown footballers to begin the new league season. Those Players arriving included Dejan Karan (Vojvodina) and Boris Bulajics (Cselik Niksics), while Eliomar Correira Silva came in on loan from Partizan Belgrade. There were changes on the coaching side as former Videoton coach Balazs Beko replaced Ferenc Horvath, who departed to manage fellow first division side Paks. 

KTE began the new season in great form despite the changes to their playing squad. They comfortably won their opening game at home to Honved, before picking up maximum points at Kaposvar with a 2-1 win. However, they have struggled over the last five league matches, picking up just two points from the available fifteen. Mezokovesd were the first to surprise them with a 6-2 win, before a 1-1 draw at DVTK and a draw at home to Haladas. Beko's side then lost 1-0 at Ferencvaros, and surrendered a 2-0 lead last weekend to eventually lose 5-2 against Pecs.

They have scored 11 goals but have conceded 16, which suggests that there are always goals on offer in matches involving Kecskemet. They have three players who have scored twice in the form of Forro, Rajczi and Eiomar. Vidi will be hoping to pick up the points on Saturday evening to return back to the top of the OTP league table.
