BTTS nailed in tight Conference League tie

Víkingur host Linfield in this UEFA conference league first leg tie which looks evenly matched on paper. Vikingur enter this third qualifying round opener after being knocked out of Champions League qualifying by Lincoln Red Imps, losing both legs and conceding multiple goals. While they were outclassed defensively, they still carried attacking threat and scored twice at home, showing that they do carry a threat.

Linfield come into this tie on the back of a confident victory over Žalgiris in the previous round of the Conference League. After a goalless draw in the first leg away from home, they finished the job in Belfast with a 2‑0 win, both goals coming before the interval. Whilst their away game was 0-0, both teams had plenty of chances and while there is no xg data, if their was you would have expected them to both be around 1 based on the chances in the game

Both teams have scored in three of Víkingur’s last five home games.  and have been in some thrilling games in front of their own fans, but their defensive fragility often leaves the door open for visiting sides. Linfield, meanwhile, have improved their away goal threat in recent seasons and possess enough attacking quality to find the net in the Faroe Islands.

With both sides boasting attacking strengths and defensive weaknesses, Both Teams to Score looks the standout pick. With not much to pick between the sides and a second leg looming, a bet on 1-1 could pay off.
