Selfoss vs ÍBV

SELFOSS, Iceland (Interstat) — Selfoss W hosts ÍBV W on Thursday in Week 11 of the ISL Úrvalsdeild Women, a matchup between two clubs trending in opposite directions.

Selfoss enters on a four-match unbeaten run, most recently blanking Volsungur W 4-0 on Sept. 12, 2025. That victory followed a 5-1 loss to Breidablik on July 30, 2025, and a 4-1 win over Thór/KA on June 10, 2022. The home side’s form has been inconsistent, but the 4-0 shutout suggests defensive improvement.

ÍBV comes in after a 3-0 win over KR on Wednesday, May 6 — a result that snapped a two-match winless streak. Earlier this season, ÍBV defeated Keflavík 3-1 on Aug. 3, 2025, drew Afturelding 1-1 on the same date, and lost to Stjarnan 2-0 on June 10, 2022. The win over KR may provide momentum for a team that has struggled for consistency.

The Interstat game simulator projects a 2-2 draw, while Interstat’s ELO system gives Selfoss a 65.7 percent probability of victory. The projections reflect Selfoss’s home advantage and recent form, but ÍBV’s strong attacking display against KR could trouble the hosts.

Both sides have quick turnarounds. ÍBV hosts Breidablik on Saturday, May 16. Selfoss travels to Keflavík on Friday, May 15. Thursday’s result could set the tone for those fixtures.

Kickoff is set for Thursday evening at Selfoss’s home ground. Weather conditions are expected to be mild for early May in southern Iceland, with temperatures near 8 degrees Celsius and light winds.

The match marks the 11th round of the 18-game regular season. With the standings tightening, every point carries weight. Selfoss will look to maintain its unbeaten streak and climb toward the top half. ÍBV aims to build on Wednesday’s victory and string together consecutive wins for the first time this season.

Key players to watch: Selfoss forward who scored twice in the 4-0 win, and ÍBV midfielder who notched a goal and an assist against KR.

The referee assignment has not been announced. No suspensions or injuries have been reported for either side.
