General match analysis

Víkingur remain unbeaten at home, winning 40% of their matches and drawing as many as 60%, which significantly increases the likelihood of a share of the points. The hosts create slightly better chances on their own ground, averaging 1.81 xG compared to HB’s 1.75, while defensively they allow 1.11 xG versus 1.35 for the visitors. HB have been more effective in their last five matches, scoring 7 goals, conceding just 4 and winning 3 games, whereas Víkingur’s record stands at 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat. The visitors average 1.8 goals per away game, and their 13% shot conversion rate marginally exceeds the hosts’ 12%; however, Víkingur concede just 1.0 goal per home match. With the attacking potential of both teams very evenly matched and the hosts showing a strong draw trend, a draw appears to be the most likely outcome.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

HB has a seasonal Both Teams To Score rate of 70%, clearly above Víkingur’s 50% and the league average of 54%. Both teams regularly create chances: average xG stands at 1.85 for the hosts and 1.75 for the visitors, while each team records 5.7 shots on target per match. Víkingur has recorded BTTS in 80% of its last five matches, averaging 1.4 goals scored and 1.2 conceded per game. HB has been more solid defensively recently, conceding an average of 0.8 goals, but has kept a clean sheet in only 30% of its matches throughout the season, while Víkingur fails to score in 30% of its fixtures. The superiority of the attacking metrics and HB’s high seasonal BTTS profile suggest that BTTS - Yes is the most likely outcome.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The match profile points to at least two goals: Víkingur average 1.7 goals per game, while HB average 1.8. Both teams create plenty of chances, as reflected by their seasonal xG figures of 1.85 for the hosts and 1.75 for the visitors, along with 5.7 shots on target per match each. The 1.5 line was exceeded in 80% of Víkingur’s matches and 90% of HB’s, compared with a league average of 2.84 goals. Recent form has been slightly more cautious, with both teams scoring 1.4 goals across their last five matches, but HB have failed to keep a clean sheet throughout the entire season. Therefore, Over 1.5 goals is clearly the strongest data-backed option, while at the 2.5 line, the risk is limited to a more evenly balanced outcome.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The most likely HT/FT outcome is a draw at half-time followed by an HB win, as Víkingur were level at the break in 40% of their matches, rising to 60% across their last five fixtures. HB nevertheless have the stronger overall record: they won 60% of their matches and scored an average of 1.8 goals, compared with Víkingur’s 1.7. The visitors have also been more defensively reliable in their current form, conceding an average of 0.8 goals in their last five appearances, compared with 1.2 for the hosts. The first half should be cautious, as both teams kept a clean sheet at half-time in 70% of their matches, while the average number of goals before the break is just 1.4 for Víkingur and 1.2 for HB. After the interval, HB have a favourable opportunity to turn the result around, as their opponents concede an average of 0.5 goals in the second half, while the visitors score after the break at an average rate of 0.9 goals per match.
