The match between an underdog and a mid-table team in the Icelandic First Division promises to be a high-scoring affair, despite the difference in the teams' standings. Ægir is at the bottom of the table with five winless matches (one draw, four losses), conceding an average of 1.6 goals per game.
IR Reykjavik is in fifth place and has demonstrated a vibrant attacking play: in five matches, the team has scored 14 goals (an average of 2.8 per game). Meanwhile, the visitors have conceded almost as many goals—12. Importantly, both teams have scored in 80% of IR Reykjavik's away matches, and the average time for the first goal on the road is the 24th minute.
Considering the statistics and style of both teams, betting on overtime seems the most logical. Ægir will be looking to redeem themselves in front of their fans at home, and Reykjavik's attack is consistently productive.
