Appearing at their own stadium in the last season Leiknir Reykjavík generated 3-2-6 (win-draw-lost) with {10 goals} and 21 conceded.

It's back home for Leiknir Reykjavík, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Throttur Reykjavik away with the result 3-1. Sigurðsson, Sowe and Matthíasson found the net in that victory.

Preceding that fixture, a home victory hosting Selfoss in the Iceland Cup. The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Reykjavík have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 8 games) they have won 5 times, drawn 1 and lost 2.

The manager Jósepsson will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Thór in only four days.
