Player to watch – Bence Dárdai
Teenaged midfielder Bence Dárdai is a player of genuine promise for Wolfsburg and the 19-year-old’s progress was rewarded with a first cap from Hungary during the recent international break.

Dárdai could pull the strings
Dárdai is more of a distributor than a goal scorer, though the youngster did score his only goal of the campaign in the reverse fixture between Wolfsburg and Heidenheim earlier in the season and the midfielder could be just as influential on Saturday.
