KR
WLLLWL
After tasting defeat last time out to Víkingur Reykjavik in Úrvalsdeild action, KR and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

Head to head
A review of their past head to head results stretching back to 07/05/2023 tells us that these fixtures have not been happy ones for KR. They’ve not been able to register any victories at all whereas Valur have just been stronger than them, getting wins in 67% of those games played.
Those games weren’t short on goals, either, with 32 in total at an average of 5.33 goals per match.
The previous league clash featuring the two was Úrvalsdeild match day 2 on 14/04/2025 which finished with the scoreline of KR 3-3 Valur.
🧠
Prediction
We’re of the opinion that Valur have it within them to be able to create a high number of chances and successful shots on target.
At the other end, KR could well struggle to score but we do think it’s quite likely that they will be getting the chances to score, too.
Accordingly, we see a pretty comfortable 3-1 victory for Valur at the end of the 90 minutes.
