Viktor Orban faces his biggest electoral challenge in 16 years as Hungary prepares for Sunday's election, with polls showing his Fidesz party trailing behind.

The vote is seen as a referendum on strongman rule and Hungary's pro-Russia stance, with opposition leader Peter Magyar promising to turn the country back towards the West.
