FK Ventspils vs Valur Reykjavik Prediction and Betting Advice

FK Ventspils are the favourites with bookmakers to take a first leg lead against visiting Valur Reykjavik on Thursday evening. But our FK Ventspils vs Valur Reykjavik picks are heavily influenced by the general form of each set of players. Momentum and confidence are huge factors in football and right now Valur have both. Ventspils don’t concede many goals – despite their poor start to the season, they have let in just eight goals in eleven matches.

Valur have the winning habit however and with three wins from their last four, they will head to Latvia with a real belief that they can win. I’m tipping them to defy the odds and take a narrow first-leg lead on Thursday.
