Stjarnan vs Víkingur
Match Preview
Víkingur and Stjarnan wrap up their UEFA Conference League first qualifying round tie in the Faroe Islands, with a spot in round two of qualifying on the line. Stjarnan arrive with a commanding 3-1 lead from the first leg in Iceland, putting real pressure on the hosts to produce something special at home. The opening leg swung wildly. Andrias Benjaminsen fired Víkingur ahead early, only for Emil Atlason to drag Stjarnan level and then in front with two goals, one a penalty, before a third strike sealed a 3-1 win. Atlason's sharpness in the box makes him the man to watch, while Benjaminsen will again try to give the home crowd an early lift. Víkingur must win by two clear goals to force extra time, and by three or more to go through outright — a tall order against a Stjarnan side happy to sit in and manage the game. Our prediction: 2-1
