Grindavik welcome IR Reykjavik on Thursday, Jul 16 at 9:15 PM in a 1. Deild fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Grindavik come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). IR Reykjavik travel struggling badly (1W 4L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Despite playing at home, Grindavik face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. IR Reykjavik have won 4 of 7 encounters, with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 2–2 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 4.6 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Grindavik a slight edge, but IR Reykjavik are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
