Keflavik vs Leiknir Match Previews & Betting Tips

| | ,

Keflavik and Leiknir won just two games each, but the former is struggling in the relegation zone, while the latter sit at the middle of the tables. The winning team will advance several positions on Sunday afternoon and this should provide the motivation needed to come out firing on all cylinders.

Team News and Probable Lineups

Keflavik has a clear preference for players from Australia, as it has two such strikers in the starting formation. They work wonders for the team playing in the Icelandic first division and will pair up front for this match. Joey Gibbs is the player to look for, as he scored four goals in seven games so far.

Leiknir have amassed nine goals so far, but none of them were scored by their strikers. This is a strange situation that brings into the spotlight the most successful midfielder in the Pepsideild. Magnusson found the way to the net on six occasions and he’s expected to play an invaluable role for the visitors.

Form Guide and Head-to-Head Results

Keflavik ended a four-game losing streak with a clear victory at home.

  • The last time they won a match was more than a month ago, also at the end of a game in which they kept a clean sheet.
  • In three of the previous four defeats they allowed four goals, which is a huge concern ahead of this fixture.

Leiknir are also struggling to regain their form after being defeated in three of the last four matches.

  • They do have the advantage in the head to head matches, after winning the last four direct matches.
  • This is an important performance, but weight against poor form, offers no guarantees

Odds and Betting Tip

Keflavik has a home pitch advantage and won the last match but the head to head record is tilted against him. We are a bit put off by Leiknir’s lack of options up front but still trust them to find a way to score against such a terrible defense.

Our prediction: Leiknir to Win
