Vikingur take on the visitors Malmo in the second leg of round of 16 in UEFA Champions League qualification. First leg result: 2-3. The match will be played on Tuesday, July 12th at Víkingsvöllur (Reykjavík).
Malmo can't relax in upcoming match. The Swedish champion obviously did not achieve the desired result in the first game, although they easily could turn the second leg into a formality. Malmo just didn't have enough luck somewhere, let down the team and concentration, this is evidenced by the missed ball in stoppage time. In the domestic arena, the club is only fourth after 14 games, 4 points behind the leader, however, the leaders Hacken still have a game in hand. In the last round, Malmo confidently defeated Varberg at home with a score of 3-0.

Vikingur showed themselves as a strong-willed team in the first leg. The very participation in the Champions League for the Vikings is a big event, because last season they became the champions of their country for the first time in 30 years. It will not be easy to defend the title as the team is second in the strongest Icelandic division, 6 points behind the leader. Vikingur has already passed two rivals in the current Champions League, but the competitors were not of a high level. The club is currently on a streak of five league wins.
In the first leg, Malmo was considered a big favorite and had a total advantage, besides, the Swedes played in the majority from the end of the first half. Vikingur played very worthily, losing only 2:3, the score does not reflect the picture of the game, but keeps the intrigue in the pair. Bookmakers do not believe in the Icelandic champion, although Vikingur has shown that he is not a passing opponent. At some point, the game should start on a collision course, where both opponents will have their moments. A bet on over 2.5 goals looks like a working option here.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
