Vikingur Reykjavik will be looking to make the most of home advantage when they welcome Hapoel Beer Sheva to Iceland for the first leg of the Champions League second qualifying round. As Hapoel have yet to kickstart the new domestic campaign, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 home win. The Icelandic champions are already in the middle of their domestic campaign and showed their European quality by eliminating Gyor in the previous round. However, they enter this clash after suffering a 2-1 defeat to Thor Akureyri at the weekend. Vikingur have still been impressive overall, winning seven of their last ten matches and averaging 2.5 goals per game. Midfielder Daniel Hafsteinsson has been a key figure in Europe, contributing a goal and an assist in the 2-2 draw with Gyor, and he will again be one to watch.
Hapoel Beer Sheva arrive with mixed feelings after an inconsistent preseason and a defeat to Maccabi Tel Aviv in the Israeli Super Cup. The visitors are still searching for their best rhythm, but they have shown they can be dangerous away from home, winning three of their last five matches on the road. Summer arrivals Niv Yehoshua and Joao Victor are pushing for their full-time debuts as Hapoel look to improve their defensive stability. The Israeli side have averaged 1.8 goals per match in their last ten fixtures, but they have also conceded 1.6 per game, suggesting vulnerabilities at the back.
Vikingur side are match-sharp and have been excellent at home, winning all of their recent home matches. Therefore, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win. Additionally, BTTS and Over 2.5 goals bets are worth considering.
This Champions League match will be played on Tuesday 21 July 2026 at 20:00.
