Ferencvárosi TC​

Manager - Pascal Jansen
Domestic form - Top of Nemzeti Bajnokság (NB1) in Hungary, 6 wins out of 6
Europa League form - Lost MD1 2-1 at Anderlecht

Andy: "There are two interesting things here for me. One, they have a number of players who have played in the Champions League before, so that shows they have significant resources for that part of Europe. They have a nice, new stadium, this year they appointed Pascal Jansen as their coach, and he was the coach of AZ Alkmaar when they got to the semi-final of the Conference League, a really bright coach. He’s quite well known - his mum was a British pop star (Sue Chaloner). They’re ambitious, with players like Adama Traoré (Mali international) who has played in the Champions League. You’ll get a big atmosphere there as well. It’s not like playing in the national stadium, the Groupama Aréna is smaller, tighter and a bit noisier. Without getting amazing results, they’ve given big teams some difficult moments in the Champions League, so it will be interesting."
