MTK Budapest secured a 30-28 win over Szombathelyi KKA in the Women's NB I on 5 September 2026. The result leaves both sides level on points at the bottom of the table, with each having played one match.
Neither side has moved through the rankings yet. Both teams sit at zero points after their opening fixtures of the season, though the away victory gives MTK a psychological edge going forward.
Szombathelyi's recent form showed mixed results before this weekend. They had drawn 31-31 with Mosonmagyaróvár in May and lost 22-39 to Ferencváros on their last outing before the break.
MTK, meanwhile, were in better shape. They beat Kisvárdai KK 34-30 and Budaörs 31-25 in their August fixtures, and had actually beaten Szombathelyi 38-26 back in December 2025. And here's the thing — the away win was what we called for. The forecast gave MTK a 52% chance of victory, and they delivered when it mattered.
The two-goal margin suggests Szombathelyi stayed competitive but could not find the breakthrough. MTK's deeper squad and consistency in recent months proved decisive in a match decided by fine margins.
