KA Akureyri vs Fjolnir Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

KA avoided defeat in their opening game in July, but they remain in the bottom two after last weekend’s result. They drew 0-0 at home to Breidablik, which leaves them still in single figures in terms of points. With concerns over their future in the top division growing, they need to quickly turn things around. They can look forward to another home game this week, as Fjolnir visit Akureyri on Thursday night. Will this be another positive trip for the visitors, or will KA claim a key victory?

KA are two points shy of safety ahead of their next clash. They’ve got issues all over the pitch, but they just aren’t picking up enough results. One victory in eight is a terrible record, and KA need to improve that soon. Will a meeting with struggling Fjolnir be the perfect chance to turn things around? The visitors are only three points clear of danger themselves, despite claiming three points on Sunday.

Fjolnir claimed a victory over Fylkir at the weekend, and that has kept them clear of trouble for the time being. They stayed up by a narrow margin last season, after finishing 10th in the Urvalsdeild. However, they’re back in danger this time around, with a tight relegation fight seeing six sides in the Urvalsdeild left struggling against the drop. At the moment, KA are only above a hapless Keflavik side, after losing half of their league games so far.

The hosts have suffered four defeats in six matches, and they are looking shaky. While they picked up a 0-0 draw at the weekend, we still aren’t convinced by a side who have conceded in 70% of their league outings. Meanwhile, Fjolnir are strong on the road, scoring in every away game so far. They’ve claimed two 2-1 victories, which has led to them picking up 58% of their total points so far in away matches.

The visitors have seen plenty of high scoring matches so far, with 100% of their away trips seeing both teams score. Fjolnir have conceded a goal in 10 consecutive Urvalsdeild games, and we see that record continuing. While we’re backing Fjolnir to claim a win, we think the best way to go is to back the visitors to win and both teams to score. We’re also going for a 2-1 away win, and each of those picks seem like fantastic value, given that the visitors look to be in strong form on the road.
