View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Valur’s season BTTS rate stands at 55%, while Thór’s is only 45%, and the visitors have failed to score in as many as 45% of their matches. Thór’s current form is particularly significant: BTTS - Yes occurred in just 20% of their last 5 games, with the team averaging only 0.8 goals scored. Valur have conceded heavily recently, averaging 2.8 goals per match and allowing opponents 2.58 xG, yet Thór’s attack generated only 1.37 xG during this period. The hosts should be able to exploit the visitors’ vulnerable defense, which concedes 2.73 goals per game over the season, but the greater risk is that Thór fail to find the net. Therefore, BTTS - No is marginally more likely, meaning that at least one team is expected to keep a clean sheet.

Thór score just 0.82 goals per match this season, but Valur’s defense concedes an average of 1.82 goals, meaning the visitors also have a realistic route to finding the net.

The hosts average 0.45 goals before the break, whereas Thór concede as many as 1.36 goals per match during this period, reinforcing the scenario of an early Valur lead. Across the season, Valur win 36% of their matches compared with Thór’s 18%, while the away side allow opponents to score an average of 2.73 goals per game. Valur’s attack also records slightly higher average xG, 1.29 versus 1.19, while Thór’s defense is considerably weaker, with 2.27 xG against. The main risk lies in the hosts’ defense, which concedes an average of 1.82 goals, but Valur’s advantage in the opening phase and Thór’s poor away form make the HT/FT lead for the hosts and their eventual win the most likely outcome.
