KR Reykjavik take on the visitors Valur in the round 17 match of Icelandic Besta Deild Karla. The match will be played on Monday, July 31st at KR-völlur (Reykjavík).
It seems that Reykjavik will be fighting for at most the 4th place in this season, as they have significantly fallen behind the top 3, currently trailing by 11 points from the pedestal. The capital team lacks stability, alternating positive results with negative ones, while the top 3 teams (including Valur) only occasionally allow themselves to drop points. The hosts are considered slight underdogs in this match, and it's quite logical since in May, they suffered a 0-5 defeat against Valur. Overall, Reykjavik manages to accumulate points more actively against opponents below their level, but they find it very difficult and rare to challenge the top 3 teams this season. Therefore, considering a positive bet on the hosts is quite challenging.

Valur are currently in the 2nd position and is chasing the leading team Vikingur, who is 6 points ahead. The team's current form is quite good, with only one loss in the last 7 matches, and they secure confident victories, rarely conceding goals. As mentioned earlier, they dismantled Reykjavik 5-0 in the first-round match. They may not achieve such a crushing victory this time, but adding more points to their tally is highly likely. So, betting on the away team is definitely worth trying, as Valur shouldn't suffer a defeat here.
The bookmakers have set similar odds, and Valur is not significantly favored. This might be due to the fact that the match is away, and it could create certain difficulties for Valur. Therefore, one can consider the betting option: Handicap (0) on Valur. I believe that the away team will undoubtedly secure some points and at least play for a draw.
Prediction for the match: Valur to win with 0.0 handicap.
