Ireland vs Hungary: Key Statistics and Trends
- Ireland has not won in their last four matches.
- Hungary is on a 15-match unbeaten streak.
Ireland - the shape of the team and its analysis:
"Ireland" has a reasonably solid squad, with about ten players featuring for Premier League clubs last season. Seamus Coleman is even a living legend at Everton. However, in the Euro qualifiers, the team only managed to beat Gibraltar, losing all other matches. Their friendly games haven't gone well either. They managed a draw with New Zealand in November. Their home matches in March were goalless: a 0-0 draw with Belgium, thanks to Kelleher's saves and the team's determination, and a 0-1 loss to Switzerland.
Hungary - the shape of the team and its analysis:
"Hungarians" have been impressive recently. They performed well in the Nations League, nearly winning their group in League A. They managed to top their Euro qualifying group, finishing 4 points ahead of the second-place team, Serbia, the nominal favorite. Rossi's team has not lost since the autumn of 2022. In March, they extended their unbeaten run with a pair of home "clean sheet" victories: 1-0 against Turkey and a convincing 2-0 against Kosovo.
