Our prediction is: ÍR to win the 1st half

ÍR is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts Grindavík a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking ÍR to win the first half.

Our prediction is: Grindavík win or draw

The home team is usually a safe bet in the Double Chance market, and that is no different in the upcoming match. Our top tip is to bet a Grindavík win or draw against ÍR.

Our analysis of Grindavík points to them being the superior side, which is why they have a strong chance to win the match outright. And with the added benefit of needing only a draw at home against ÍR, their chances of cashing in the 1X Double Chance bet grow even stronger.
