Puskás II vs Pápai Perutz in the NB III - Northwest
The NB III – Northwest season rolls into Felcsút as Puskás II host Pápai Perutz in a mid-week clash that could tilt the momentum of the promotion picture. Every point is precious in Hungary’s third tier, and bragging rights in western Transdanubia are on the line.
For the academy side, victory would reinforce their push toward the section’s summit, while the visitors aim to upset the odds and claw their way up the table. Both clubs know that a defeat here could widen gaps that become hard to close in the season’s final stretch.
Puskás II represent the reserve arm of Puskás Akadémia FC, founded in 2005 in honor of Ferenc Puskás, Hungary’s legendary striker of the 1950s. The academy is renowned for youth development and has supplied talents to the national setup and Europe’s larger leagues.
Puskás II — Club Profile

Lineups: Puskás II vs Pápai Perutz
Neither club has released official squads, but Puskás II are expected to field a youthful XI anchored by their academy’s latest standout center-back pairing. Creative responsibility should fall to a diminutive playmaker operating between the lines, supported by pace on both wings.
