Vikingur Reykjavik will try to keep their European adventure alive when they welcome Borac Banja Luka in the Conference League playoffs, first leg. The Icelanders produced a thrilling 3-2 win over Thun in the Europa League third qualifying round, but the result was not enough to overturn the first-leg deficit. Vikingur have been prolific in front of goal lately, scoring 2.1 goals per game across their last 10 matches and an impressive 3.0 per game at home. However, their defensive record remains a major concern, with the hosts keeping no clean sheets in that period and conceding 1.9 goals per game.
Borac, meanwhile, booked their place in the playoffs after defeating ML Vitebsk on penalties in the previous round. The Bosnian side have lost only twice in their last 10 matches, although both defeats came away from home. Borac have been much more convincing defensively than their opponents, keeping five clean sheets in their last 10 games. Defender Viktor Rogan will also need to be careful, as another yellow card would trigger a suspension.
As Vikingur are a real force to be reckoned with at home, winning 75% of their last 10 there, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Vikingur Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (Vikingur’s home games average 4.5 goals).
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 20 August 2026 at 19:00.
