Valur vs Vikingur Reykjavik Prediction 18 June 2024

Valur take on Vikingur Reykjavik in the round 10 match of Icelandic Besta Deild Karla. The match will be played on Tuesday, June 18th at Hlídarendi (Reykjavík).

For three years, Valur has not been able to become the champion of Iceland; last season, the team only secured silver and couldn’t put up a fight for the gold medals against their neighbors from Vikingur. In the new season, the “Falcons” have been performing quite well so far, currently sitting in third place in the table. They had a shaky start, but Valur picked up a fantastic pace afterward, winning five out of their last six matches and drawing one. They defeated Breidablik (3-2), KA Akureyri (3-1), HK Kopavogur (2-1), Stjarnan (5-1), and in the most recent round, they won a derby against KR Reykjavik in a high-scoring match (5-3). Only Hafnarfjordur managed to take points from the vice-champions in the last 1.5 months (2-2).

While Valur hasn't won the gold medals for three years, Vikingur has become the country's champion twice in that time. In the current season, the “Red and Blacks” are also confidently leading the table. The team has secured eight wins, one draw, and only one loss, leading Valur by four points. Vikingur often plays on over 2.5 goals, especially when their opponents contribute to hitting that total. Examples include victories over Breidablik (4-1), KA Akureyri (4-2), Vestri (4-1), Fylkir (5-2), and a loss to HK Kopavogur. The match against the “Falcons” is a crucial derby in which Vikingur will not settle for a draw. Both the hosts and the guests will strive to win at all costs. Considering how strong both teams are in attack, I expect them to compete in goal-scoring throughout the 90 minutes.

Trying to predict who will come out on top in this crucial match is a futile effort. For this game, I’m choosing an unusual bet - either P1 or P2 + over 2.5 goals. Valur and Vikingur have not played many draws recently, with only two out of their last eight encounters ending in a draw, and one of those was in a Super Cup battle. In their previous five league encounters, only one match ended without a winner. I don’t think the likelihood of a draw is very high in this instance either. Valur and Vikingur should be able to score at least three goals between them in this derby. The over 2.5 goals bet was successful in seven out of the last eight meetings between these opponents. My prediction is either P1 or P2 + over 2.5 goals.

Prediction for the match: No draw and over 2.5 scored goals.
