Northern Ireland and Hungary go head-to-head in a thrilling international friendly fixture at the Windsor Park Stadium on Tuesday.
This will be the first meeting between the sides since September 2015 when the spoils were shared in a 1-1 draw in the group stages of the Euro qualifiers.
Northern Ireland returned to winning ways last Friday as they comfortably edged out Luxembourg 3-1 away from home.
They are now unbeaten in each of their last three games, claiming two wins and one draw in that time.
Next up is the stern test of taking on an opposing side who they have managed just one win against in their previous six encounters.
Meanwhile, Hungary were denied a third win on the spin last time out as they lost 1-0 against Serbia.
Prior to that, they picked up two successive wins from their final two World Cup qualification games, seeing off San Marino and Poland respectively.
Hungary have managed just one win from their last five friendly outings, losing three and claiming one draw in that time.
Northern Ireland vs Hungary Head-To-Head
With four wins from the last six meetings between the sides, Hungary boast a superior record in the history of this fixture. Northern Ireland have managed one win in that time, while the spoils have been shared once.
