Georgia vs Hungary prediction, team news and preview

Georgia vs Hungary: what the match decides

Georgia host Hungary at the Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena on Saturday 14 November 2026 in matchday 5 of the UEFA Nations League, League B Group B. The result matters at both ends of the table.

Hungary are second with 7 points from 4 games, inside the promotion play-off zone and one point behind leader Northern Ireland, who have 8. Georgia are fourth with 2 points, in the relegation play-off zone, and have not scored in the group.

The main question is whether Georgia can find a goal. Our lean is that Hungary have the stronger attack and the steadier recent form, so they are the likelier side to take something from the game.

Georgia and Hungary recent form

Georgia's last five games read WLDLD: one win, two draws and two defeats. They scored 2 and conceded 2, or 0.4 per game each way, with 3 clean sheets and 4 games without a goal. None of those five matches had both teams scoring or more than 2.5 goals.

At home Georgia have played 3 of those five, winning 1, drawing 1 and losing 1. They scored 2 and conceded 1 there, kept 2 clean sheets and failed to score twice.

Hungary's last five read WLDWW: three wins, a draw and a defeat. They scored 6 and conceded 3 (1.2 scored and 0.6 conceded per game), with 2 clean sheets, 2 games both teams scored in and 2 with over 2.5 goals.

On the road Hungary have played 2 of those games, winning 1 and drawing 1, scoring 2 and conceding 1. They kept one clean sheet away from home.

Georgia vs Hungary team news

No absences are reported in our data for either side so far, so there are no confirmed injuries or suspensions to weigh. That can change before the game, and you should check for updates closer to kick-off.

Line-ups have not been published. They are normally confirmed about an hour before kick-off, and we will not guess at names before then.

Without absence information, the analysis rests on team trends rather than individual selection. Georgia's difficulty is in front of goal, and Hungary's results offer more evidence of scoring.

No absences reported so far.

Georgia and Hungary storylines

For Georgia the story is a goal drought. They have drawn 2 and lost 2 of their 4 group games, with 0 goals for and 2 against (goal difference of minus 2). Their only win in the last five was a 2-0 friendly against Bahrain in June.

They have been hard to beat in the group, with 0-0 draws against Ukraine and Northern Ireland, but a lack of goals has capped their points total. A win here would lift them off 2 points.

Hungary have 7 points and sit in a promotion play-off place. Their last three games brought a 0-0 draw away to Northern Ireland, a 1-0 win over Georgia and a 2-1 win away to Ukraine.

Another win would keep them in the hunt for the group lead, with Northern Ireland on 8 points.

Where Georgia vs Hungary may be decided

The central contest is Hungary's attack against Georgia's defence. Georgia concede only 0.4 goals per game over their last five, but Hungary average 1.2 and have scored in 3 of their last 5.

The other contest is Georgia's lack of goals against Hungary's defence. Georgia have failed to score in 4 of their last five games, while Hungary have conceded 0.6 per game and kept 2 clean sheets.

If Georgia stay compact, a narrow match is likely. A single goal, perhaps from a set piece or a counter-attack, could settle it, which is why the first goal matters more than usual.

Georgia vs Hungary head-to-head

Our data holds one meeting, and it is recent. Hungary beat Georgia 1-0 at home in the UEFA Nations League on 2 October 2026.

That gives Hungary one win, Georgia none and no draws, with one goal per game and neither side scoring in a match that went over 2.5 goals. It is a small sample, but it fits the pattern of tight scorelines in Georgia's games.

Georgia now have home advantage in the return, and the first meeting had no goals for them.

Georgia vs Hungary prediction

Our lean is a narrow Hungary win. They have the stronger form (3 wins in their last five), they scored 6 in that run, and they won the first meeting 1-0. Georgia's 0 goals in 4 group games is the biggest concern.

On goals, we lean towards a low-scoring match with fewer than 2.5 goals. None of Georgia's last five went over that mark, and Hungary's concession rate is low at 0.6 per game.

The main risk to this view is Georgia's home form. They have conceded just 1 goal in 3 home games, and a draw would not be a surprise. An early goal for either side could also change the shape of the game. MATCH PULSE's three AI engines (GPT, Claude and Gemini) publish their independent analysis of the match before kick-off.
