IT'S a tough card and not a great deal to go at but the Icelandic Pre-season Cup game in Reykjavik offers a couple of bets that may be worth a look for low stakes.

NO scientifically advanced write-up or reasoning required here – just the fact I've been a massive advocate of Nordic goals in the latter stages for years now.

The Iceman cometh (in the 2nd half hopefully)

Although it's not a given it's frightening how many times the rule has been applied successfully in Icelandic football at different levels … none more so than by the top-flight sides!

Goals for both on the cards

I can well see both on the scoresheet as these two big-hitters meet and H2Hs have been fairly consistent so hopefully, it'll be a close 1st half giving way to 2nd half goals!

Interesting to note those pesky bookmakers have now banished corner markets from Valur's pre-season games but I'm sure they'll be back for the Urvalsdeild proper so keep an eye out.

For this one though it's goals and more specifically late goals.

KR Reykjavik v Valur (9pm)

  • KR 2nd half highest scoring half (11-8, bet365) – 1pt
  • Valur 2nd half highest scoring half (7-5, bet365) – 1pt

    Hi Hull.
    See Jordon rossiter is on his way to Bury. Didnt see a lot off him at RFC but he’s looked a decent young player. Could be a good addition as Bury push for promotion

      Evening John – apparently the Lincoln game persuaded him he wanted to be part of the Gigg Lane set-up!

      Not sure about that and although I don’t think he showed his full ability at Rangers, he’ll certainly be a welcome addition as we push on lime you say ??? UTS ⚽️
