Selfoss sit second in the 2. Deild table with 26 points from 14 matches, while Dalvík / Reynir trail in seventh with 20. The form guide tells a clear story: Selfoss have collected 21 points from their last 10 outings (6W-3D-1L), averaging 2.10 points per game and scoring 2.50 goals per match. Dalvík / Reynir, meanwhile, are in a downward trend, winning just five of their last ten (50.00% win rate) and averaging 1.60 points per game. Their away record shows they are involved in high-scoring affairs, averaging 2.40 goals scored and 2.40 goals conceded on the road.
Head-to-head history heavily favors the hosts. Selfoss are unbeaten in four previous meetings against Dalvík / Reynir, securing two wins and two draws. The last encounter ended 2-2, and three of the four historical fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals. Statistically, the mathematical model projects a combined goal expectancy of 4.40 (2.45 for Selfoss, 1.95 for Dalvík / Reynir). When you layer that over Selfoss’s 90.00% BTTS rate in their last ten games and Dalvík / Reynir’s away games averaging 4.80 total goals, the goal environment is primed for an open contest.
From a value perspective, the bookmakers have priced Over 2.5 Goals at 1.36. The market consensus fair probability sits at 69.51%, but recent scoring trends and Poisson inputs push the true probability closer to 78%. The implied probability from the odds is 73.53%, meaning the market has slightly undervalued the likelihood of a multi-goal game given the current attacking form and defensive vulnerabilities on both sides. Dalvík / Reynir’s defensive metrics are deteriorating, with a declining goals conceded trend and a 40.00% away loss record, while Selfoss have found the net in every recent fixture.
