Vikingur Reykjavik will be looking to produce a much-improved performance when they host Thun in the second leg of their Europa League third qualifying round tie. As Vikingur are a real force to be reckoned with at home, our main prediction leans toward a 3-1 home win. The Icelandic side face a huge task after suffering a 3-0 defeat in the first leg, but their home form offers some encouragement. Vikingur have won all four of their last four matches on home soil, scoring 2.75 goals per game while conceding just 1.00. They are expected to stick with Sölvi Ottesen’s 3-4-3 formation as they attempt to mount a comeback.
Thun produced a commanding display in the opening leg and will be confident of protecting their sizeable advantage. The Swiss side have struggled for consistency recently, winning only two of their last 10 matches, but their 1.40 goals per game shows they can still pose a threat. Thun have also seen 80% of their recent away games feature BTTS. Kait and Montolio remain sidelined with injuries.
As Vikingur's perfect home record makes them capable of claiming a victory, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside Vikingur Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals (both teams have been involved in plenty of high-scoring games recently).
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday 13 August 2026 at 18:30.
