Fram favourites for Greater Reykjavík bragging rights
In this Fram Reykjavik vs FH Hafnarfjordur preview, Fram Reykjavik head into Sunday's Greater Reykjavík derby as clear favorites at 1.47, but FH Hafnarfjordur are worth the risk at 5.13 to snatch the bragging rights and the 5.05 Draw also appeals. Fram have won three of their last five games across all competitions (D1, L1) and have won their last two games - beating Thor Akureyri 6-1 at home before edging out Valur 3-2 away.
But FH are on a five-game unbeaten run in all competitions, although four of those draws, rather than wins, suggests this will be a close game. Gils Gislason has been a standout performer for the visitors with four goals in three Besta deild karla 2026 games, but Ulfur Bjoernsson has chipped in with two of his own during their five-game unbeaten run.
Fram coach Rúnar Kristinsson has done a great job since taking over on 1 January 2024 and his compact side are reaping the rewards of their defensive shape, which allows them to cover plenty of ground and punish opponents when they give the ball away. Atli Jonasson is their danger man with seven Besta deild karla 2026 goals in just three games, making him a handful to deal with in the box. Our Fram Reykjavik vs FH Hafnarfjordur prediction is that Fram's quality should tell, but the visitors have enough form to make things uncomfortable.
FH can make a game of it
Jóey Gudjonsson has had a difficult task to keep FH organised since taking charge on 1 January 2026, but his side have found their feet recently and are keeping things tidy in the middle of the park. Fram will sit back in a five at home, whereas FH will be more four at the back and try to build from the back, which suits the visitors if they're not sloppy in possession.
The hosts will have a chance to punish the away side if they do give it away cheaply and that's why we think Over 2.5 goals at 1.24 and Both Teams to Score at 1.37 are the best picks for this game, rather than a tight, cagey slog, although it could be close. Fram have the edge and should take the points, but FH are in an unbeaten run and we think that could keep this derby game competitive and entertaining. Fram Reykjavik vs FH Hafnarfjordur betting tips point towards goals, with both teams expected to create chances. For our Fram Reykjavik vs FH Hafnarfjordur prediction, Fram still look the more reliable side, but FH can certainly make a game of it.
