GOALS are king looking at Sunday's card and I'm highlighting games in Iceland and South America that should see the net bulge!

Keflavik v Breidablik (4pm)

League Cup action here as Keflavik look to adjust to life in 1 Deild after what was a shocker of a relegation campaign last season. Briedablik are by far the stronger side and should be the main contributors but Keflavik chipping into the total would help the cause!

H2Hs have a strong profile for goals with 17 of the last 29 match-ups seeing 4 or more match goals and a closer look at Briedablik's fortunes when on the road at Keflavik shows another bit of data that adds appeal with the away side hitting 3-4-1-0-2-4-2-3 team goals in games featuring 4-5-1-2-3-6-3-5 match goals.

IR v Alftanes (8.15pm)

A tale of two journeys here – IR were brilliant a couple of seasons ago and ripped their 2 Deild oppositions apart before promotion but a subsequent year of hammerings sees them back from whence they came whereas Alfatanes are about to begin life in 3 Dield after escaping the clutches of the sprawling 5th tier of Icelandic football!

What the two teams do have in common however is goals – it's impractical to trot out each team's full records but both side's goal totals read 33 in 9 for IR and 37 in 9 for Alfatanes – that a combined nine-game picture that includes a whopping 70 goals!

  • Over 3.5 goal double

Carmelita v Deportivo Saprissa (7.30pm)

Much bigger prices for goals than I'd anticipated seeing and possibly down to Saprissa's Mexican Copa Libertadores exploits midweek!

Either way, The Purple Monster (or El Monstruo Morado as the away side are known) are by far the superior side and boast a great record against a Carmelita side whose own form is more sour than sweet!

H2Hs in recent campaigns have been goal-rich with the last 17 seeing 5-3-4-2-4-2-6-1-1-7-4-4-4-3-3-5-4 match goals in just a four-year spell … not too shabby!
