LiontipsStjarnan - Vikingur: betting tip and bets for the Iceland Championship match (May 19, 2025) from the UPU
Command Analysis
Current form
Last season, Stjarnan was close to getting into the top three, but in the end he fell two points behind third place and was left without medals. In the current championship, the club is in eighth place, but this does not mean much, since the density in the table is very high. On May 15, the team barely reached the quarterfinals of the Icelandic Cup, beating Kari from the second division in a penalty shootout. In the last round of the championship, the team from Gardabair won a home victory over Fram (2:0), breaking a series of three defeats.
Disqualifications and injuries
The hosts have no problems with the squad on the eve of the home match.
Interesting betting trends
- The team has won four of the last five home matches.
- The hosts have never played a draw in this championship.
Approximate line-up: Olafsson - Jonsson, Ingimarsson, Thorisson - Matthiasson, Brink, Varen, Hauksson, Kristjansson - Knockvasson, Atlason
Current form
Vikingur has shown a good game in the current Conference League draw, surprising many. The team managed to get into the playoffs, where they lost to Greek Panathinaikos by only one goal difference. (2:1, 0:2), although it seemed that the capabilities of the teams were not comparable. In 2024, the guests took only the second place in the Icelandic championship, three points behind Breydablik. This time, the capital's team will try to regain the championship title. In the last two matches Vikingur scored home victories over Fram (3:2) and Habnarfjordur (3:1).

3.30Tip and bets
Vikingur has a clear advantage in class, but the team has been acting hesitantly on the road lately. Outside the walls of their stadium, the team won for the last time in October last year. Stjarnan is far from the weakest opponent, so we would not be sure of the victory of the team from Reykjavik. We think that the hosts will score at least one point.
Our betting tip is that Stjarnan will not lose in 1.82
Bet on the total
Rivals often have productive games, including this season. In Iceland, there are few teams that know how to play defense competently, and they all have failures from time to time. Face-to-face matches between today's rivals often turn out to be spectacular, and for sure the fans will not be disappointed this time either.
Our betting tip is a total of more than 3.5 goals in 2.15
Betting on corners
Based on all of the above, we are inclined to believe that the game is unlikely to be closed. This means that there is a high probability that there will be a lot of corners.
Our betting tip is a total of more than 11.5 corners in 1.87
