Standings & head-to-head
Valur Reykjavik have been struggling in Besta deild karla 2026 and currently sit 5th in the table with 19 points from 14 games, while FH are languishing down in 11th after picking up just eight points from 13 matches.
The visitors won their most recent head-to-head 3-0 at home in Besta deild karla 2026, but they have failed to beat FH in their last three attempts away from home. Three of the previous five meetings ended in draws.
Hermann Hreidarsson’s Valur have the edge
Hermann Hreidarsson took charge of Valur on 1st January 2026 and they have been a more fluid side this term in a 3-5-2/5-3-2 formation that utilises the wing-backs.
Valur's form is poor coming into Sunday's game with just one win, one draw and three defeats in their last five and they have won three and lost four of their seven away fixtures in Besta deild karla 2026, conceding 12 goals on their travels.
Tomas Orri Robertsson is FH's danger man, the winger has four goals in three games in Besta deild karla 2026, which makes him the club's top scorer. Adolf Birgisson has also chipped in with two goals across the past five games and they need all the help they can get right now as they have drawn three straight games.
FH are more negative but have some bite
Joey Gudjonsson has been in charge of FH since 1st January 2026 and the club has played well, but with little bite in a 4-2-3-1 system that keeps them compact and ready for the transition.
FH have been flat at home in Besta deild karla 2026 and have gone six games without a win on their home turf, conceding 11 goals in those matches.
They did beat Thor Akureyri 4-2 away from home, but lost 1-0 away to IBV Vestmannaeyjar the following game.
The head-to-head suggests this will be a close game and we are on the edge of backing the draw, but the superior goal power of Valur suggests they are the more likely winner. Tryggvi Hrafn Haraldsson is Valur's top gun with seven goals in four games in Besta deild karla 2026 and he has scored three of Valur's last six goals.
