We know who we’ll be facing next in the Officium Hungarian Cup! In the second round of the qualifiers, we’ll be facing DUE WORM Angels, and this time we’ll be playing on home ice: on Tuesday 20 October at 6.45 pm at the Győr University Ice Sports Centre (MK 6).
Tuesday 20 October, 6.45 pm · UNI GYŐR ETO HC – DUE WORM Angels · Győr University Ice Sports Centre
The draw took place on 6 October, in the presence of the teams’ representatives. According to the competition rules, the team listed first in the tie could choose the venue. We were awarded this privilege, so following our 4–0 victory in Budapest on 28 September, we can now take to the ice in front of our own fans. As in the first round, this will be a single-match tie with no second leg: whoever wins on Tuesday evening goes through.
A familiar opponent
We know the Dunaújváros side well from the western group of the Andersen League. In the first round of the cup, they won 5–4 away at FTC-Telekom B. We have faced them ten times in the league over the past three seasons, and we have won all ten matches, most recently 7–3 in Dunaújváros this January. In the cup, however, it’s a one-off match; there are no second chances here. An interesting fact: eleven days after the cup match, on 31 October, they’ll be visiting us again in the league.
The other fixtures in the second round are: Lehel HC v UTE, Újpesti JA v Acélbikák SP and MAC Budapest AHC v FTC-Telekom B.
This is how the cup competition continues
In the third round, scheduled for 10 November, four Erste Liga sides – Budapest Ice Hockey Academy HC, DEAC, DVTK Jegesmedvék and FEHA19 – join the four teams that progress from the second round. The fourth round on 22 December will decide which two teams will join the defending champions FTC-Telekom and Hydro Fehérvár AV19. The final four will be held on 30–31 January 2027, with the venue to be announced at a later date.
The season ticket is also valid for this match, and tickets can be purchased on our ticketing page via the Cooltix system. The gates open at 17:45, one hour before face-off.
There was no shortage of ice hockey in the week before the cup match either: from 14 to 16 October, we hosted the University of Győr Hockey Cup V, an EUHL tournament, here in Győr. You can read our review of the three days in this article, and our full schedule is available on our matches page.
Hajrá UNI GYŐR ETO!
