The Iceland football arena resumes play after a brief break. Three months have passed since the previous encounter between Leiknir and Fram in the Premier League Relegation Group, which Fram won 3-2. After suffering losses to IBV Vestmannaeyjar and Keflavik, Leiknir are coming into this match with a dismal run of form. 

They haven't been able to win any of their last five matches, so they don't have a single victory to show for their efforts. Because they have already surrendered goals in six straight games in a row, the coaching crew and the players will most likely put in additional effort to strengthen the defence.

After playing KR Reykjavik to a draw on December 13, Fram are going into the match having earned a point from the match. They have now given up goals in five straight matches away from home, which places further mental tension on the team. Despite the fact that the squad may have gotten themselves into a bad position, will they be able to start the contest after the break in an impressive fashion?

Over the course of the previous year, Leiknir and Fram got together four times. Every single match was won by Fram. The most recent meeting between them took place on October 2, 2022, in the Relegation Group of the Icelandic Premier League, and Fram came out on top with a 3-2 victory. Therefore, in their more recent past, Fram have a stronger head-to-head record when competing against Leiknir overall.

In the past, when Leiknir Reykjavk and Fram have played each other, there has been a total of 3.8 goals scored on average, and both teams have scored in 80 percent of the matches.
