Preview

Match preview

Borac Banja Luka host Vikingur Reykjavik in the UEFA Europa Conference League following a decisive 3-1 victory in Iceland in the previous meeting on 20 August 2026. The Bosnian side enters this clash in fine shape, having won both of their home fixtures in the sample while keeping clean sheets and scoring four goals across those two matches.

Vikingur Reykjavik arrive needing an aggressive attacking display after conceding three goals at home in the first encounter. While the Icelandic outfit demonstrated their scoring capability in domestic and European fixtures—including high-scoring outings against Valur Reykjavik (2-0) and FH Hafnarfjordur (4-2)—their defensive vulnerability was exposed in the 1-3 loss to Borac.

With Borac Banja Luka firmly holding the tactical advantage and displaying solid defensive resilience at home, the hosts are well placed to manage proceedings, while Vikingur's need to chase the tie should create an open contest.
