Despite securing a 1-0 victory against Zrinjski in their recent Europa League qualification match, Breidablik found themselves unable to recover from the substantial 6-2 deficit they faced in the first leg. However, this win marked their first triumph in their last 7 games across all competitions.

As things stand, Breidablik occupy the third position on the league table, having amassed 35 points from 19 matches. Their offensive endeavors have yielded 39 goals, while their defense has conceded 28 goals. However, they find themselves trailing the table-toppers Vikingur by a significant margin of 15 points. This considerable gap has dealt a considerable blow to their aspirations of successfully defending their title.

Enduring a daunting stretch of 18 matches without a victory, Keflavík and their supporters hold onto the hope of savoring a triumphant moment once more. Anchored at the league's bottom, the looming specter of relegation grows more ominous with each passing day. Presently, Keflavík sit with 11 points from 19 matches, having netted 19 goals while conceding 37.

Confronting the defending champions, Keflavík face an uphill battle to secure anything beyond a consolation goal from this encounter. The odds are certainly stacked against them, as they strive to defy their prolonged winless streak and the formidability of their opponents.

Examining their past head-to-head encounters dating back to July 30, 2018, reveals that Breiðablik have emerged victorious in 4 of those matches, while Keflavík secured a single win. The drawn matches stand at 1. Collectively, 20 goals were produced in these clashes, with 14 attributed to Blikar and 6 to Keflavík. This amounts to an average of 3.33 goals per game.

In their most recent league face-off, which occurred during Úrvalsdeild match day 10 on May 29, 2023, the two teams played to a 0-0 stalemate, underscoring the tightly contested nature of their encounters.

The defending champions are certainly poised to sail comfortably past their opponents. Nevertheless, the visitors are not likely to surrender without putting up a determined fight.
