Gödöllő vs Füzesabony - NB III - Northeast

When Gödöllő and Füzesabony clash at Szűcs Lajos Sportcentrum on May 10, 2026, the stakes extend well beyond a single result — this is a NB III - Northeast fixture that carries real weight for both clubs. Josh Allen had an impressive first game at the Buffalo Bills’ new stadium in their second NFL fixture of the season.

There is little to choose between Gödöllő and Füzesabony on paper, and the NB III - Northeast encounter should reflect that balance. Gödöllő are operating at a remarkable level, their WWWLL run and a season win rate of 71.43% placing them among the NB III - Northeast's very best. Füzesabony travel in decent nick, WWLLW in their last five and a win rate of 57.14% this season. Where Gödöllő have built their campaign on solidity, Füzesabony have often chased flair, and that fundamental difference should make for compelling viewing. Carrick has experimented with Noussair Mazraoui in that position but he seems to have fallen down the pecking order, as the less experienced Patrick Dorgu was preferred for the Manchester derby loss.

Set-piece efficiency and transition play often decide fixtures of this nature, and both managers will have been drilling those phases on the training ground. Schalke had only 17 per cent of the possession but, having visited the club to interview their charismatic coach Miron Muslic, that is hardly a surprise.

In fixtures as finely poised as this one, it often comes down to who holds their nerve in the big moments — and both camps have players who relish that responsibility. The wide areas will be a key battleground, with full-backs and wingers on either side capable of swinging the contest one way or the other. Signing a central defender is not seen as a priority despite Jeremy Jacquet and Giovanni Leoni coming off the back of long-term lay-offs.

The market has yet to form a strong view, and the contest looks genuinely difficult to call. A share of the spoils looks the most probable outcome, with neither side holding a decisive edge — a 2-2 draw feels like a fitting result. Whatever the outcome, the NB III - Northeast fixture promises a meaningful contest with real implications for both clubs. And Fonseca does not place too much weight on the decision of Roberto Martinez to omit him from the World Cup squad in favour of his Benfica team-mate Tomas Araujo.
