Keflavik take on the visitors Hafnarfjordur in the round 17 match of Icelandic Besta Deild Karla. The match will be played on Monday, July 31st at Keflavíkurvöllur (Keflavík).
Currently, Keflavik are at the bottom of the league table, but the team is not as simple as it seems. While they rarely manage to win, they often secure draws, with 2 out of their last 3 matches ending in draws. Considering Hafnarfjordur's relatively poor form, it is quite possible that the hosts will be able to secure some points in this match. Keflavik's home record is quite peculiar with 4 draws, 4 losses, and 0 wins. Winning might be a difficult task for the hosts, but another draw is certainly realistic. Hafnarfjordur's overall results are not very impressive, especially when playing away from home.

Hafnarfjordur have turned into a mid-tier team in Icelandic football, even though they were once champions. The current situation is such that the league will soon split into two groups of six, and every team naturally wants to finish in the top six to continue the fight for medals rather than being in the relegation group. Currently, Hafnarfjordur is on the border of the top six, and they are in need of points. However, they have suffered three consecutive defeats in the last three matches. True, they will face an underdog in the upcoming match, but it is an away game, and Hafnarfjordur has only managed one away win out of eight matches in the current championship. So, the situation is not straightforward, and the determined Keflavik might just secure a draw in this game.
I don't see a clear favorite in Hafnarfjordur in this match. The team is currently going through a crisis, and it is uncertain whether it will end in the upcoming match. Therefore, I will go with the betting option: 1X. Keflavik's tendency to draw matches is evident, and this might happen in this encounter. So, my bet for this match is 1X.
Prediction for the match: Keflavik not to lose (1X).
