There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the Meistaradeildin table so far. Here's the Víkingur - B36 latest:
It's no vacation for neither Víkingur nor B36 as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Víkingur form and stats
The story so far in the Meistaradeildin for Víkingur at their home stadium (Sarpugerði) is 7 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats. Víkingur has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager E. Klakstein and the players.
The Víkingur fans got no joy from their last match, a Meistaradeildin game also here at Sarpugerði: A 1-3 defeat against KÍ (placed 2nd). Prior to that, an away loss at NSÍ.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (28 in 12 games), Víkingur's attacking play is working. Víkingur have conceded 17 in these home matches.
B36 form and stats

Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but B36 are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.
B36 play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-1 victory visiting ÍF (placed 6th). Preceding that game was the away victory against Skála with the score of 2-1.
J. Joensen came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against ÍF last time out, making the manager J. á Borg feel like a tactical genius. Late drama in the previous game, when J. Joensen scored the winning goal four minutes into stoppage time to defeat ÍF.
B36 are a potent attacking force on the road with their 33 goals in 13 league games. B36 have conceded 17 goals in these away matches.
