      Northern Ireland have seen a clear uptick in form recently, notching 4 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses across their last 10 matches. Hungary, meanwhile, posted 5 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses in their past 10 outings, but neither side has locked in a steady, reliable points-earning rhythm as of late. Northern Ireland’s attacking performance has been rather outstanding recently, with players competing in a very relaxed mindset. Their tactical awareness and finishing quality in the final third are top-notch, and even though they hold a distinct advantage in overall squad strength, the actual on-field competitiveness between the two sides is nearly evenly matched. Both teams have hit a patch of fluctuating form recently, with Hungary stuck in a worrying poor run of late. The final result of this encounter is far from a foregone conclusion.

      Centre-back Dan Ballard suffered a hamstring injury against Georgia and will miss out in gameweek two. Expect Norwich's Ruairi McConville to replace him in the back line. Shea Charles was the hero for Northern Ireland against Georgia on Friday night as his 99th-minute goal proved enough for three points in the Nations League opener. Michael O'Neill's side have won just two of their last five games ahead of Hungary's trip to Windsor Park. Hungary couldn't respond to Danylo Sikan's opener late in the first half on Friday night as they suffered a narrow home defeat to a 10-man Ukraine side. That result ended a four-match unbeaten run for the away side.
