We head to the Groupama Arena in Hungary on Tuesday for the first leg of the Champions League Playoff round clash between Ferencvaros and Qarabag. The winner of this tie between the Fradi and Atlilar will enter this season’s main draw, while the loser will be transferred to the Europa League league phase. Let’s get into the match prediction!
A mixture of tension, nerves and excitement is expected this week as the Green Eagles look to soar to a return to the top tier of club cup football in Europe. FTC have not featured in the UCL main draw since 2020-21, which was also their only appearance in the competition over the last three decades.
As for the Blue and Whites - they’ve attempted qualifying for the Champions League in 10 of the last 11 seasons, but only managed to get to the big stage once in that time (2017-18). A lead in this tie could prove crucial - let’s get into the key stats!

Ferencvarosi Budapest - Qarabag FK: Form Analysis
Ferencvaros produced an excellent performance in the home leg of their third-round qualifying tie to beat Ludogorets 3-0 last week after a goalless opening clash in Razgrad. That followed a 4-3 aggregate victory over Noah in the preceding round.
However, Fradi’s European commitments have seen them make a mixed start to their domestic league campaign, where they lost 2-1 to Puskas this past weekend and have seven points after four games.
Notably, that loss to Puskas brought an end to a five-match winning streak and a 12-game unbeaten run for the hosts at the Groupama Arena. Still, they have scored two or more goals in four of their last five competitive matches at this venue.
Qarabag beat this opponent 4-2 on aggregate in UCL qualifying at the start of the 2022-23 season!
This term, the Horsemen have been excellent in this competition, following up a 4-0 aggregate victory against Shelbourne with a stunning 6-1 win over Macedonian outfit Shkendija in the last round.
Given that their opening round Azerbaijan Premier League fixture last weekend against Sabah was postponed, the Blue and White’s only matches this season so far have come in this competition.
Barring pre-season friendlies against FC Twente and RB Salzburg, the visitors are unbeaten in their last five competitive matches on the road and have kept clean sheets in each of their last three.

Our Ferencvarosi Budapest vs Qarabag FK Prediction
Ferencvaros boss Robbie Keane took no chances with his team selection over this past weekend, and given that he has a fully fit squad at his disposal, the Irishman will be expecting to secure a lead here at home to take into the second leg.
However, we simply cannot write off Qarabag from possibly edging a result here, given how they’ve performed in the competition so far. Additionally, the visitors are unbeaten against this opponent in three previous encounters. Our Ferencvaros vs Qarabag prediction is both teams to score.

Ferencvaros over 1.5
