Hafnarfjordur hosts Thor Akureyri in the Icelandic Cup 1/8 finals. The match will be played on Thursday, July 30th at Kaplakriki (Hafnarfjordur)
Habnarfjordur is one of the best clubs in Iceland. They were left without medals only once for five years. They have reached at least cup semifinals since 2016, and they lost in the final of the last tournament. Hafnarfjordur treats the tournament with all seriousness and responsibility. It has a good break in the championship because the next match will take place on August 5, so the team can concentrate on the cup match.

Thor plays in the first division of Iceland, and they have never managed to rise higher for five years. The team is also far from promoting to the Premier League this season. They managed to reach the cup quarterfinals only once for five seasons.
There is no particular point in paying attention to head-to-head meetings because the teams are from different divisions. They have not met for a long time, but the advantage of Habnarfjordur is obvious. The team won in the last three matches, and two of them ended in victories with a -1 handicap. The calendar allows Habnarfjordur to field the regular lineup, and it will play against a modest representative of the first division at the home stadium. Therefore, I expect a confident victory of the hosts.
Prediction for the match: Hafnarfjordur to win with -1.0 handicap
