ÍA
LWLWDW
ÍA are hoping to win again following a 0-1 Úrvalsdeild success versus FH.
It has been a rare occasion in recent times that ÍA have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that ÍA have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 11 goals along the way.
Valur
LLWWLL
After a losing effort in their last game against Víkingur Reykjavik in Úrvalsdeild action, Valur and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
Helgi Guðjónsson (5') and Karl Friðleifur Gunnarsson (84') scored for Víkingur Reykjavik.
In their previous half-dozen clashes, Valur have bagged a tally of 9 goals. Valur have also not failed to score in every single one of those games. Over that period, their defenders have seen 17 goals go into their own net. Such a pattern isn’t assured to follow through into this next game, of course.
👥
Head to head
Looking over their prior head to head clashes dating back to 08/08/2022 tells us that ÍA have won 1 of these games and Valur 4, with the tally of draws being 1.
There were also goals galore in those games, with 28 in total at an average of 4.67 goals per meeting.
The previous league encounter between the two was Úrvalsdeild match day 17 on 05/08/2025 which finished with the scoreline of ÍA 2-2 Valur.

Team News: Valur
Valur manager Arnar Grétarsson has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Patrick Pedersen (Achilles tendon rupture) and Kristinn Freyr Sigurdsson (unknown injury) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

Prediction
We believe that ÍA have it within them to be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.
At the same time, Valur may well struggle to make a breakthrough but do we see them hitting back at some stage here, too.
Accordingly, we see a 3-1 win for ÍA by the time that the referee blows the final whistle.
