The Hungarian Football Federation has assigned Iványi Gábor to officiate the NB I round 13 fixture between Kisvárda Master Good and Puskás Akadémia FC. This appointment represents the 27-year-old Nagykanizsa native's debut as a head referee in the Hungarian top division. He becomes the latest newcomer to the elite tier this season, following previous debuts by other officials.

Iványi Gábor made his second-division refereeing debut on February 16, 2025, and has since overseen 30 matches at that level. During the current campaign, he has already gained top-flight experience by serving as the fourth official on three separate occasions prior to this central appointment.

For his inaugural NB I assignment, Belicza Bence and Horváth Zoltán will assist on the touchlines. Bogár Gergő has been designated as the fourth official for the encounter. The Hungarian Football Federation stated that the identities of the video assistant referees would be published at a later date.

The match is scheduled to take place on Saturday, November 7, with kick-off set for 18:45 local time. Broadcast coverage will be provided domestically, marking the latest addition of a new referee to the national league's roster of officials for the ongoing season.
