Keflavik

vs

KR Reykjavik

Preview

Keflavik

• Haraldur Gudmundsson has done a fine job at Keflavik since taking over in August 2023.
• Keflavik have won one of their five home matches in the Besta deild karla (D2, L2) and scored four goals.
• They are organized in their defensive shape and can make it difficult for teams to break them down.

KR Reykjavik

• KR Reykjavik, who sit second in the Besta deild karla 2026 with 28 points from 12 games, are a class apart from Keflavik, who are seventh with 12 points from 11, so the road favorites make plenty of sense in the 1.76 listed odds for Sunday's clash at Keflavikurvoellur.
• Oskar Thorvaldsson took charge of KR in August of 2024 and has done a brilliant job in creating a team that plays a structure-first, possession-based style that can control the pace of games and dictate territory.
• KR's last three games have featured two madcap 5-3 home wins over KA Akureyri and IA Akranes, which were split by a 2-0 away defeat to Vikingur Reykjavik.
• KR Reykjavik have won three of their last five league games, with two defeats.
• KR Reykjavik have scored an average of 3.20 goals per away game in Besta deild karla 2026, but conceded an average of 2.60.

Betting Insights

• The Over 2.5 goals bet looks a sure bet at 1.18, but with KR's superior form, firepower and head-to-head advantage, we'll take the road team to get the win.
• The road side are priced at 1.76 while the home team are as big as 3.59 to win.
