Republic of Ireland head into this match unbeaten in their last four games, showing solid form and defensive resilience against various international opponents. The hosts played a 0-0 draw with Luxembourg in a friendly in June, following another 1-1 draw with Senegal in a previous friendly, highlighting their consistency but also occasional struggles to convert chances.
At home, Ireland are unbeaten in three matches, winning two and drawing one, and will aim to kick off their World Cup qualifying campaign with a convincing victory as they pursue a ticket to the Mundial. Their attacking unit will look to improve efficiency while maintaining defensive discipline to start qualifying strongly.
Meanwhile, Hungary will look to address their recent inconsistencies as they begin their World Cup qualifying journey this weekend. The visitors have managed just one win in their last six games, losing four and drawing one.
Hungary are eager to return to the World Cup finals, with their last participation dating back to 1954. With the qualifiers now underway, the Hungarians see this as a fresh start to move past their disappointing Nations League performances.
Considering recent form, Ireland are favourites to win this encounter. They are unbeaten in four games and have suffered only two defeats in their last eight matches, while Hungary have lost four of their last eight, drawing two. Historically, Ireland have never lost to Hungary, winning once and drawing twice.
We also anticipate over 2.5 goals in this fixture, as Hungary’s last five competitive matches averaged three goals per game, showing attacking strength and occasional defensive lapses. Meanwhile, Ireland’s last six competitive games averaged 2.8 goals per match, reflecting their ability to create chances while occasionally leaving spaces at the back.
