Football Fever Subsides: Plenty of Tickets Available for the Match against Bosnia

The Hungarian national team will face Bosnia and Herzegovina in the second round of the UEFA Nations League on September 10. On Saturday, our national team got a disappointing result in Germany (5-0 win for the home side), therefore they will have a lot to prove. Világgazdaság pointed out that although the clash is today, there are still plenty of tickets available.

Given the trend of recent years, it is a surprise that tickets are still available in several sectors and price categories on the day of the match against Bosnia, as it can be see on the ticket sales platform.

There are seats in three of the best pitch-side sectors for HUF 25,000 (EUR 62). Five sectors in the middle stands are filled with empty places, with tickets for HUF 20,000 (EUR 50). Tickets for nine sectors at the top of the stadium are available for HUF 13,000 (EUR 32).

However, there are no more tickets available at the cheapest price of HUF 7,500 (EUR 18).

After the match against Bosnia and Herzegovina, there will be no national team matches for a month, therefore the players will return to their clubs straight away. The next match will be against the Netherlands on October 11.

Hungary are currently ranked 31st in the FIFA world rankings, ahead of Slovenia (52nd), Norway (50th), the Czech Republic (47th), Romania (45th) and Slovakia (44th). Before the UEFA Euro 2024, our team was ranked 27th.

Concerning today’s UEFA Nations League match, FIFA rankings favor Hungary on paper, with Bosnia and Herzegovina in 75th position.

According to Transfermarkt, the balance is also in Hungary’s favor based on the squads of the two national teams. The German portal ranks our national eleven as the 42nd most valuable with a total value of EUR 158.98 million. Despite not winning the European Championship, England are still the most valuable team with EUR 1.47 billion. England is followed by Spain (EUR 1.01 billion), with France at the bottom of the imaginary podium (EUR 1 billion).

The Bosnians are behind the Hungarians on this list as well, with Transfermarkt putting their total at EUR 101.2 million.

The other two nations in our group, Germany and the Netherlands, are well ahead of Hungary in these tables. Germany are the 13th strongest team in the FIFA ranking, while the Netherlands are 7th. In terms of the value, Germany are the 7th most expensive team with EUR 771 million, while the total value of the eighth-ranked Dutch team is estimated at EUR 712 million.
