Kópavogur’s poor form doesn’t seem to be ending anything soon. The team lost 2-0 to 10-man Fylkir in their last game. Despite their opponent playing with 10 men for almost 40 minutes, they couldn’t dictate the game's tempo and conceded 2 goals. They remain winless in their last 7 games. They sit bottom of the table with 14 points in 18 games, scoring 19 goals and conceding 47.

KR Reykjavík suffered a 2-0 loss to Vestri in their last game. The loss followed their 1-0 win over Hafnarfjordur in round 18. However, they have won just one in their last 11 games. Away from home, they are winless in their previous 5 games. They sit 9th on the table with 18 points in 18 games, scoring 28 goals and conceding 34.

Both sides have met 19 times since first meeting in 1999. Kópavogur won 5, KR Reykjavík won 10, and 4 ended in draws. The last game between the two sides ended 2-1 in favor of Kópavogur.

Kópavogur’s current form and place on the table is a big concern for the team, and the struggle is not ending anytime soon. With this, I see the visitors getting a win here. However, I expect a free flow of goals from both sides in the second half of the game.
