Valur vs Vikingur Reykjavík Prediction: Both sides are superb at the moment

Valur and Vikingur Reykjavík will settle scores at the Origo Voellurinn Stadium on Tuesday. Both sides have an excellent record in their attacks and are unbeaten in at least their last 10 games. Below are previews, H2H, expert betting tips, and odds.

DWWDW

Valur recorded a 5-3 win in their last league game against KR Reykjavik. Sigurdarson got the game's first goal in the 6th minute, before Andresson added the second in the 7th minute for KR Reykjavik. However, Haraldsson pulled one back for Valur before Pedersen equalized in the 31st minute. Haraldsson put Valur ahead in the 34th minute, and Pedersen made it 4-2 in the 37th minute. Unnarsson put the final nail in the coffin in the 74th minute. Valur’s offense truly deserves lots of commendation for the comeback win, and they have also scored in each of their last 6 games. 

Valur sit 3rd on the table with 21 points in 10 games, scoring 23 and conceding 12 goals. Patrick Pedersen has been an exceptional player for Valur this season. The 32-year-old forward is the league's highest goal scorer with 8 goals.

Víkingur Reykjavík recorded a 5-2 win over Fylkir in their last game. Thrandanson scored in the 13th minute after Arinbjornsson had an opening goal for Fylkir in the first minute of the game. Agnarson added the second goal in the 18th minute before Gudjorsson added the third in the 58th minute, just 6 minutes after Stifansson had equalized for Fylkir. Ari Sigurpalsson made it 4-2 in the 62nd minute before Gunnersson scored the 5th goal in the 79th minute of the game. With the win, Víkingur Reykjavík have only lost 1 in their last 21 games. They are currently 1st on the table with 25 points in 10 games, scoring 25 and conceding 10. 

Danijel Djuric will be a player to watch in this game. The 21-year-old forward has now scored 3 goals in their previous 5 games. He has scored 5 goals this season, just 3 goals short of the league’s top scorer. 

• Víkingur Reykjavík are unbeaten in 20 of their last 21 games.
• Víkingur Reykjavík have the best attack in the league this season, with 25 goals.
• Valur are unbeaten in their last 10 games.
• Víkingur Reykjavík have the best defense in the league, conceding just 10 goals.
• No player in the league have scored more than Patrick Pedersen (8) this season.

Both sides have met 20 times since 2019. Valur won 7, Víkingur Reykjavík won 6, and 7 ended in draws. The last game between both sides ended in a one-all draw after extra time before Vikingur Later won on penalties.

This is a tough game to pick looking at the position of both teams and performances. Vikingur Reykjavik have been in great form, and Valur should prove stubborn and do better at home. However, I will still side with Vikingur in this game; a win for them is worth risking. Additionally, both sides will find the back of the net here.
