- NSÍ Runavík are unbeaten at home in the Faroe Premier League 2026, winning 7 and drawing 1 of their 8 games in Runavík and have conceded only 2 goals in those 8 matches.
- Skála ÍF have taken 3 draws and 5 defeats in their 8 away games in the Premier League 2026 and have averaged just 0.75 goals per game on the road.

Tight contest expected on Monday night
NSI Runavík vs Skala IF preview: NSÍ Runavík sit in 2nd place on 34 points from 17 games and Skála ÍF are down in 9th on 14 points from 17 matches. NSÍ are the clear favorites at 1.33 with the draw at 4.9 and Skála ÍF at 7.38, but the odds look a little low in this one. The recent two games between these sides have both finished even, and this points to this being a low-scoring game in which the home side are expected to win.
An early goal could change the entire match
NSI Runavík vs Skala IF prediction: NSÍ Runavík are counter-punchers with Skála ÍF looking to play deep and frustrate the visitors, before aiming to break through with either direct play or from set pieces. The visitors are likely to try and match up against NSÍ and will attempt to catch them when they overplay or are pressed into errors. This game looks like it should be in the home team's hands, but Skála ÍF can be stubborn in their low block and the draw in the last game between the two teams as well as the low average of 0.75 goals scored in Skála ÍF's away games this season points to a competitive game.
NSÍ have won 2 and lost 3 of their last 5 matches in all current competitions. Sigurdur Ragnar Eyjolfsson's side are a compact 4-4-2 which has plenty of pace in their side and they have shown the ability to switch play quickly and pick their moments to press. NSÍ come into this game on the back of two straight defeats, a 3-1 loss to HB Tórshavn in the Premier League 2026 and a 2-0 defeat to FC Lugano in UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026.
Skála ÍF are in poorer form than NSÍ, but their games have been less important, so a 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats record in their last 5 games looks a little worse than it actually is. Bogi Gregersen's side recorded a 1-0 win at home to B68 Toftir in their previous game but then suffered a 3-2 loss away to AB Argir last time out, so the away form isn't quite as positive as the odds makers would have us believe. Our NSI Runavík vs Skala IF betting tips suggest keeping a close eye on the home side to control the match.
Game to watch
NSI Runavík vs Skala IF prediction: NSÍ's main man is Michal Przybylski who has netted 7 times in 16 games in the Premier League 2026, while 2 of NSÍ's last 5 goals have been scored by him. Skála ÍF will hope Simon Joergensen can come through, the striker has 6 goals in 16 games in the Premier League 2026, while 2 of Skála ÍF's last 6 have been netted by Jakup Frederiksberg.
A home win and under 3.5 goals looks to be a good fit for this matchup given NSÍ's stingy home record and the fact Skála ÍF have struggled to score on the road this season. This also points towards a tight contest with limited chances.
