Vestmannaeyjar take on the visitors Fram in the round 14 match of Icelandic Besta Deild Karla. The match will be played on Saturday, June 8th at Hásteinsvöllur (Vestmannaeyjar).
Vestmannaeyjar have accumulated 13 points in their account after 13 rounds and currently sits in 10th place in the league table. The team has shown quite inconsistent results in the last five matches, with two wins, one draw, and two losses. In late May, Vestmannaeyjar suffered a defeat against Fylkir (1-2), followed by a convincing victory over Kopavogur (3-0) and a draw against KR Reykjavik (1-1). However, in the last two matches, under the guidance of Hermann Hreidarsson, they were heavily defeated by Valur (0-3) and then recovered with a win over KA Akureyri (2-0). In their home matches this season, Vestmannaeyjar has achieved three victories but has also been defeated three times. Playing in front of their home crowd, they have scored nine goals and conceded eight.

Fram, after thirteen rounds, has 14 points to their name and currently occupies the 9th position in the overall standings. The team from Reykjavik has also struggled with their recent results. Fram has managed only two victories against Keflavik (4-1) and Kopavogur (3-2) while suffering defeats against KA Akureyri (2-4), Vikingur (1-3), and Hafnarfjordur (0-4). Fram has performed poorly in away matches, as they have yet to secure a single victory outside their home ground. Moreover, under the guidance of Jón Þór Sveinsson, they have only managed one draw and suffered five defeats, with a goal difference of 9-20.
In this match-up, two relatively comparable teams face each other, but I still give a slight advantage to the home team. Firstly, Vestmannaeyjar players demonstrate a slightly more solid gameplay compared to their opponents. Secondly, Fram has been struggling significantly in away matches, only occasionally adding points to their tally in those games. Thirdly, considering their head-to-head meetings, Vestmannaeyjar has only lost to Fram once in the last five encounters (one win and three draws). In my opinion, there is a good chance that the home team will not concede to their counterparts this time as well. However, considering the less impressive defensive records on both sides, I believe it is reasonable to expect at least two goals. My prediction: 1X + Over 1.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Vestmannaeyjar not to lose and Over 1.5 scored goals.
