LASK vs Víkingur Reykjavík prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups – December 19, 2024
One of the sixth-round group stage matches of the UEFA Europa Conference League will take place on Thursday in Linz, where the local team LASK will face Icelandic side Víkingur. We suggest betting on the total number of goals in this match with promising odds.
Match Preview
LASK has had a disappointing UEFA Europa Conference League campaign so far, sitting third from the bottom after five rounds. The Austrian team managed only two draws at home — against Djurgården (2:2) and Cercle Brugge (0:0).
In their last match, LASK suffered a heavy 0:7 defeat away to Fiorentina, leaving them three points shy of the top 24. Their domestic form has also been inconsistent, currently seventh in the Austrian Bundesliga after a 1:2 away loss to Wolfsberger in the previous round.
Víkingur, on the other hand, capitalized on home advantage twice in this competition. They secured victories against Cercle Brugge (3:1) and Borac Banja Luka (2:0). However, even home support couldn't help them in their most recent game, a 1:2 loss to Djurgården.
With seven points, Víkingur holds 19th place in the overall standings, three points ahead of 25th-placed Celje. In the recently concluded Icelandic league season, Víkingur finished second, three points behind Breiðablik.
