Icelandic top flight action takes place on Monday evening as Breidablik Kopavogur take on Keflavik IF.
The hosts come into this fixture after a fine road victory against IA while Keflavik make the trip to Kopavogur with the visitors looking to build on a draw against Fram Reykjavik in their most recent league fixture.
With both teams placed inside the top half of the table, a competitive contest should be expected this week.

Breidablik team overview
Breidablik return to home soil looking to strengthen their push towards the top three in the Besta deild karla.
Halldor Arnason’s side sit fourth in the division after last weekend’s 2:1 win against IA. Agust Orri Thorsteinsson levelled after 64 minutes before Thorir Willumsson struck ten minutes from time to secure an outstanding comeback victory.
The home side have enjoyed a decent run of form this summer, winning four and losing just one of their last six games since the start of June.
Goals can usually be relied on when Breidablik are involved. Each of their last 13 games finished with over 2.5 goals scored, while ten of those games finished with both teams on the scoresheet.
Head coach Arnason has one injury issue this week. Top scorer Kristofer Kristinsson is likely to remain sidelined.

Keflavik team overview
Keflavik arrive in Kopavogur looking to extend a solid run of form in the Besta deild karla.
The visitors claimed a 1:1 draw against Fram Reykjavik in their most recent league fixture, with Kennie Knak Chopart’s second-half goal securing a point for the away side.
Keflavik have been in mixed form in recent weeks. Haraldur Gudmundsson’s side are unbeaten in their last three games, but have won just one of five previous league matches.
Currently sixth in the division, defensive issues have prevented the visitors from pushing further up the table. Keflavik conceded 12 goals in their last five matches.
Like the hosts, high-scoring outcomes have been frequent. BTTS landed in all but one of their last ten matches.
Head coach Sigurdur Ragnar Eyjolfsson has no reported injury issues. Joey Gibbs should lead the line, while Patrik Johannesen and Sindri Thorlacius are among the attacking options available.
