Vikingur Reykjavik vs Throttur Reykjavik Iceland Urvalsdeild Match Preview And Prediction - July 19, 2016

Vikingur Reykjavik are currently stood 9th and 4 points above the relegation zone in the Icelandic Urvalsdeild, with this match representing the half way mark in the season. Not much progress has been made since their 9th place finish at the end of the 2015 season, where they avoided relegation by 8 points. Vikingur were able to take a decent point away from their match against league leaders FH last weekend, thanks to a 93rd minute goal from striker Ottar Karlsson (3 goals in 8 appearances), and Vikingur should hope to bounce back to form in this fixture against the out-of-form Throttur.

Newly promoted Throttur Reykjavik are really struggling to hold their own in the top flight. Throttur stand rock bottom of the Icelandic Urvalsdeild in 12th place, having taken just 7 points from their 10 fixtures so far (W2 D1 L7). Last weekend’s disappointing 4-1 defeat to (then) bottom of the table Fylkir saw their losing streak increase to 4 consecutive matches and push them down to 3 points from safety.

Vikingur are clear favourites against their across the city rivals and not too much value can be seen in the full time result market. Throttur, though very out of form, haven’t been failing to score goals however. Throttur have scored 7 goals in their last 5 matches (1.4 goals per games) and all 5 of their last 5 matches had over 2.5 goals scored. Vikingur, similarly, are in decent scoring form and have only failed to score in 1 from their last 9 matches.

Combining this analysis with the statistics below, we expect both teams to score at 8/11 to be a safe bet and Vikingur Reykjavik to win 2-1 at 8/1 with bet365 to be a top value correct score bet for this match.
