Víkingur will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 14 points behind HB.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Víkingur and HB.

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Sarpugerði as Víkingur have scored 20 goals to get 16 points from 8 games. The overall stats in the Meistaradeildin are 5-1-2 (wins-draws-losses). Víkingur has recorded two wins in a row here at Sarpugerði, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.
