We bowed out of the Hungarian Cup with our heads held high against ZTE on Tuesday; only 80 seconds separated us from stopping a third NB I team in the competition. Although the match ended painfully for us, we can draw strength from that heroic battle for the league campaign. Following Vasas's Monday defeat – even though they won in Székesfehérvár – our fate is back in our own hands: if we win our remaining four league matches, we will celebrate the title. Since Kecskemét recorded a convincing victory on Sunday, mathematically even a win would not yet guarantee promotion, but it would represent another huge step towards it, as with three rounds remaining we would restore the nine-point gap between the two teams, which is also equal to the maximum number of points still available in the remaining rounds.
Thanks to improved form in recent weeks, our opponents have climbed out of the relegation zone, but they have not yet secured their NB II status. Because of Budafok's victory, the team from District XXIII are now only one point above the line, although they are unbeaten in their last three league matches. Before last round's win over Budafok, they earned a point in Székesfehérvár and beat an in-form BVSC at home. Soroksár have the second-worst away record this season: the yellow-and-blacks have won only once on the road and have gone 12 away matches without victory. The club changed coach in the winter after eight and a half years, with Gábor Korolovszky replacing Péter Lipcsei; in 13 competitive matches so far, he has recorded four wins, four draws and five defeats.

Honvéd–Soroksár 4–1 (highlights)
Our most recent home match against Soroksár was highly memorable: Alex Szabó's early goal gave us the lead, Soroksár then turned the game around in the second half, but we still found a way back. First Króner's own goal brought us level, then Kevin Kántor's spectacular overhead kick secured a 3–2 victory.
