Two top-two sides in contrast
Opposing styles of football are likely to clash when Breidablik Kopavogur host KR Reykjavik on Friday evening in what is a very tricky game to call.
KR top the Besta deild table with 18 points from six games, six ahead of Breidablik who sit fourth after collecting 12 points from the same amount of games.
Both sides have been in fine form of late, with Breidablik winning three of their last five games and KR three, and a head-to-head clash like this one is about much more than just the three points at stake. Furthermore, our Breidablik Kopavogur vs KR Reykjavik prediction suggests that this encounter could have major implications on the league standings.
KR can outgun Breidablik in a high-scoring matchup
Olafur Ingi Skulason’s Breidablik prefer to play a possession-based game and have the ball as much as possible, building from the back and playing a flexible 4-4-2 system that has them well organised at both ends of the pitch and capable of attacking in numbers.
KR, on the other hand, are a high-tempo side who have built their early-season success on exploiting transitions, aggressive pressing and a vertical style of play that sees them play in either a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 system. Both systems are attack-minded and it is this that could be the difference in this game, according to this Breidablik Kopavogur vs KR Reykjavik preview.
Oskar Thorvaldsson’s side have been in excellent away form this season and should have enough momentum to take the win in this clash, even if Breidablik, who are yet to lose at home in the Besta deild this term, put up a good fight. Looking at the Breidablik Kopavogur vs KR Reykjavik prediction, their strong away record makes KR slight favorites here.
Goals at both ends likely
When these sides meet at Breidablik Kopavogur, the goals tend to flow, with an average of over 6 goals per game being scored across their meetings at this venue. Breidablik have scored 3.3 goals a game and KR 3.0 and we’re expecting the visitors to edge a similarly high-scoring game, echoing the Breidablik Kopavogur vs KR Reykjavik prediction for a potential goal fest.
Aron Sigurdarson is on fire for KR, having hit six goals in three league appearances this season, and he will be the main threat to Breidablik’s backline. Kristofer Ingi Kristinsson is his equivalent for the hosts, having scored four goals in one league appearance and three of his side’s last nine goals.
For those looking for Breidablik Kopavogur vs KR Reykjavik betting tips, KR are a clear step ahead of their hosts in terms of attacking threat, so we’re going for the visitors to win in a game in which goals are likely to be scored at both ends, taking the odds of 2.38 for an away win and the odds of 1.23 for Total Score Over 2.5 to be a winning combination.
