Head-to-Head
IA Akranes has won 2 and drawn 1 of the last 3 head-to-head matches in all competitions.
Key Players
- IA’s talented striker Markus Ellertsson is on fire this season, scoring 5 goals in 2 Besta deild karla games and 3 in his last 5.
- Ingimar Arnar Kristjansson has 2 goals in 3 league games to lead Thor’s attack, so he will be the main man up front for the home side.
Betting Insights
- IA’s odds are 1.82 and look good value given Thor are on a three-match losing streak after a 6-0 away thrashing at Vikingur Reykjavik.
- There will likely be a few goals in this game, but Thor’s scoring problems at home make it more likely that only one team will score, so Over 2.5 goals is 1.31 and Both Teams to Score - No at 2.94.
Prediction
With Thor sitting in ninth in Besta deild karla 2026 with only six points from six games and IA just one place behind in 10th with five, IA should snag all three points in this matchup.
