Prediction commentary
Based on data as of 16 Sep, 17:13PLER are the clear favourites for this NB I encounter, with the model projecting a 30-27.9 scoreline and the service pick settled on a home victory at 55%. The visitors have lost three of their last five matches while PLER have won two, and the head-to-head record shows the hosts have taken two wins from four meetings. The pick stands only if NEKA match their opener against Eger.
PLER's recent trajectory
PLER have scored 142 and conceded 148 in five games, picking up seven points. Their most recent result was a 23-23 draw away at Csurgói on 12 September, and before that they secured a 26-25 home victory over Szigetszentmiklósi KSK. Two of their last five matches were friendlies, including a 33-29 win at home and a 30-37 loss away at Gyöngyösi KK.
NEKA's struggles
The visitors sit 10th in the table with 2 points from 2 matches, a record of one win and one draw. Their last five results show 2 victories and 3 defeats, with goals of 140 for and 186 against. Their opening match of the season was a comfortable 28-22 home win over SBS Eger Eszterházy, but they have since lost 40-21 away at Veszprem and 42-17 away at Szeged in their two most recent defeats.
Head-to-head pattern
Four meetings have taken place between these sides, with PLER winning twice, NEKA once, and one draw. The most recent encounter ended 28-28 at PLER's ground on 18 April 2025. Before that, PLER won 28-25 away at NEKA in November 2024 and 34-27 away in March 2024. The only victory for NEKA came 29-22 at home in October 2023.
The pick fails if NEKA repeat their 22-goal shutout against Eger.
