The difference in class between the Icelandic and Bosnian champions remains large. The hosts have won only two victories in the last five games, and they also suffered a crushing defeat in the last home game. At the same time, the team from Banja Luka is on a streak of nine matches without a loss, where they won seven. We believe that the visitors will play confidently in defense and are capable of getting at least a draw
Forecast - "Borac" will not lose with a coefficient of 1.65
Betting on Team Goals
It will be very difficult for the hosts to score. Borac looks great in defense and has conceded in only one of the past five games. Vikingur has a good attack line, but in today match the Icelanders will have very few chances to score.
Prediction - Vikingur will not score with odds of 3.95
Bet on total
The Bosnians have had no results in their last two European matches. This is the team current style of play. The visitors are playing in a closed manner on the field, aiming for counterattacks, and today they will most likely close in defense. We recommend paying attention to the low total.
Forecast - total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.80
