Our Prediction for the Match: Borac Banja Luka vs Ferencváros
Borac Banja Luka has been gaining momentum recently, winning their last two matches. The "Red and Blues" are not known for consistently winning trophies but managed to secure their third championship title last spring. In contrast, Ferencváros, a dominant force in Hungarian football, has won the league title for six consecutive seasons.
Both teams were eliminated from Champions League qualification earlier this summer. Borac Banja Luka struggled to get past Egnatia in extra time but were then knocked out by PAOK. They showed resilience in the Europa League, winning an intense battle against KI Klaksvík, with a crucial goal from Meyers in extra time. Ferencváros, after a strong start against The New Saints, was surprisingly eliminated by Midtjylland.
The first leg in Budapest ended in a goalless draw, which was an unexpected result considering Ferencváros's strength. However, this sets up an intriguing second leg in Banja Luka.
