Vitoria Guimarares vs Puskas Akademia Prediction: the Sixth Best Team to Cope with the Young Hungarians

Prediction for the Conference League Vitoria Guimarares vs Puskas Akademia qualifier, which will take place on July 21. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The start of the European Cup campaign is the first for Vitoria in three seasons. The Portuguese side's last international appearance was in the 2019/20 season and ended in the UEL group stage. Guimarães finished last in the quartet with Arsenal, Eintracht Frankfurt and Standard de Liege. The best achievement of Vitoria in European competitions is reaching the quarterfinals of the UEFA Cup in 1986/87. 

Akademia is actually the second team of the MOL Fehervar club. But the paradox is that in the last season of the Hungarian championship Fehervar finished in fourth place, while Puskász Akademi finished in third place. This result allowed the young team to start the new season in the European competitions.

This trip to the international arena is the third for Akademia. The first time the team dropped out immediately, losing to Sweden's Hammarby. In the previous draw, the Hungarians qualified in the first round, defeating Finland's Inter Turku, but left in the second, failing to overcome Latvia's Riga.

Puskas Akademia, despite regularly fighting for high places in the Hungarian championship, has not ceased to be a farm team. Their home success only shows how low the level of the Hungarian national championship is. Vitoria Guimarães, Portugal's sixth team at the moment, just has to cope with a young and modest opponent. Prediction - a confident win for Vitoria.
