It is week 9 of the 2018-19 OTP league season. Vidi will face DVTK, who secured their first division status on the final day of last season against Vidi. 

DVTK are currently in 10th place this season with a win and 3 draws from the opening 8 games. Their first point came at home to Puskas Academy in the second weekend of the season. They then had to wait till the fifth game for their next points, when they defeated Haladas. There were further draws away at Kisvarda and at home to Paks. Mezokovesd most recently beat them 4-2 at home, but the Miskolc side won 3-1 away at ESMTK to go through to the next round of the Hungarian cup. 

DVTK have scored 7 goals in their 8 games to date and those 7 goals have come from 7 different players. No player has managed more than a goal so far. There are two players that have played in all of their 8 games and they are Vernes and Forgacs. Brkovics and Antal have both featured in 7 games. 

DVTK waved goodbye to Gergo Kocsis (DAC), Diego Vela, Akos Szarka (Gyirmot), Robert Tucsa (Sajobabony) and there were loan moves out for Zsolt Ovari and Patrik Ternovan, who both moved to Balmazujvaros. The season had already started with the transfer window also open when Busai and Ugrai both departed, while Ioannidis headed to Maritimo. These departures naturally meant that player would also arrive to the club. Those included Tomislav Mazalovic from Croatian side Inter Zapresic, Richard Vernes from ZTE and one time Barcelona youth player Matyas Tajti was another to sign on the dotted line. Martin Juhar came from Brno, Branko Mihajlovic from Israeli side Maccabi Petah Tikva, and Kristof Polgar who was most recently at Haladas. Further newcomers were David Markvart from Puskas Academy and Bence Szabo on loan from Vidi. Markvart marked his debut with an assist but Bence Szabo is still to make his first start in the colours of DVTK.
