• Víkingur Gøta vs Inter Club D’Escaldes Prediction: Conference League Match on 20.07.2023

Key Highlights

Vikingur Reykjavík will have a tough task on Thursday when they attempt to come back from two goals down after losing their away goal against Riga 2-0.

They will look to take their good run of form into the second leg. Before last week’s loss to Riga, Vikingur Reykjavík had won four matches and drawn once in a five-match unbeaten run. 

The positive form will be the basis for their fight to get back to the match, especially when playing at home, in front of the home support. They will look to make a fast and combative start, grab the first goal and turn the match into a fight.

Bet here

Riga FC will take a healthy 2-0 lead into the second leg when they take on Vikingur Reykjavík away from home. Tactically, they will be focused on ensuring that they do not allow the home team back into the match. However, they will be hungry for more goals in the second leg, to take the tie beyond their opponents on Thursday.

Injury Report

The team news emanating from the two camps indicates that both sides have clean bills of health ahead of their clash on Thursday.

Prediction

Vikingur Reykjavík will win on the night but are likely to fall short on aggregate given the two-goal deficit.
