Editor's Pick
Keflavik will definitely find their chances: Thor have conceded in 14 of the last 15 head-to-head meetings, and at home - in 7 of their last 8 matches at Besta. The visitors have been consistent this season: Keflavik have scored in 14 of their 15 league matches, and in 8 of 9 away. With the division's worst defence, the hosts will find it hard to contain that kind of regularity. We expect at least two goals from the visitors. The bet is Keflavik individual total over 1.5. Predicted score - 1:2.
