Haukar vs Vestri tips and predictions

Haukar generous price to cause the shock

If you like end-to-end football, you'll be buzzing for this.

Vestri are obviously favoured by the sportsbooks but the outrageously short price means they are a no-bet.

This Haukar team's chances might be hanging on a thread in quick-time. But they've posted some good wins. The hosts have impressed in their last 4 games, winning all of them. Without the success they'd want the visitors have been defeated in 5 of their last 7 matches, away and at home. For a team so short in the betting, perhaps they'd be expected to have done better than this. It seems that Vestri have won this before a ball has even been kicked. However it's worth looking a little closer at how these sides measure up.

Haukar are going to have to produce a standard of football most people don't think they are capable of. If the hosts can somehow control the result of the match, it will be due to the confidence they gained in their recent goal spree. They have been comfortable on the ball. Their recent 4 matches have resulted in them averaging an impressive 7.0 goals per game.

Vestri have only scored twice in their last 7 games. The home team can approach this with swagger. Maybe they shouldn't fear the Vestri frontline players.

In their last match Haukar had a 3-2 win against Aegir.

Some of the hosts' recent success has been built primarily on their strong attacking play and they'll have to produce their best stuff if the visitors are to be denied. They'll look to continue their winning streak with another victory here and while they are up against it, they might just do it.

The betting markets imply that both sides can score despite the overwhelming favouritism for Vestri. This preview is all about value though and with the odds-against price on BTTS No, that makes more sense.
