Viking Aberdeen betting prediction

The home team plays its first match in this edition of the UEFA Europa League with the intention of using the home advantage to get a positive result. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 23 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 28 goals scored and 28 conceded. In their last match, for the Eliteserien, they got an away win against Kristiansund by (3‑5). In the last 10 home matches Viking has won 3, tied 2 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 20 of the last 20 have ended with Over 1,5 goals and 15 out of 20 have ended with Over 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 8 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around. there are 3 periods that stand out in the last 9 home matches for all competitions: they have scored 6 of their 16 goals between minutes (46'‑60'); they have suffered 5 of their 14 goals between minutes (16'‑30') and 5 of their 14 goals between (76'‑90').

Viking come to this game with a 3-5 away victory over Kristiansund, registering in this way the third straight triumph in official matches: the goals of the team were scored by Bytyqi (2), Berisha (2) and Ibrahimaj. It should be noted that the home team got access to this 2nd round of the Europa League after winning the 19/20 Norwegian Cup. In this game against the Scots, coach Bjarne Berntsen should act with a strategy very similar to the last game, favoring defensive organization and counterattacks, especially through the aisles. Sondre Bjorshol is out of this game due to physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Iven Austbø, Rolf Daniel Vikstøl, Axel Óskar Andrésson, Viljar Helland Vevatne, Zymer Bytyqi, Fredrik Torsteinbø, Joe Bell, Henrik Heggheim, Veton Berisha, Yann-Erik de Lanlay.
Coach: M. Jensen.
