Haraldur Gudmundsson has been attempting to get his side to play a simple, pragmatic game with a solid back four at the base, compactness at the back and patient build-up play, rather than trying to press the ball.
Vikingur Reykjavik have made an even more impressive start to the season, sitting second in the table with 10 points from 4 matches. Soelvi Ottesen has overseen a disciplined approach to the game, with his side setting up in a compact 5-4-1, keeping the pace in central areas and launching rapid, collective transitions when they win the ball back.
