Following a 2-1 defeat in the first leg against Vikingur Reykjavik, Hapoel Beer Sheva will look to use their home advantage to apply pressure in the return leg. While the Israeli side aims to be more productive in attack, Vikingur's defensive discipline and counter-attacking threat will keep the match tight. The scenario points towards a home win or a close draw, accompanied by a controlled and relatively low-scoring balance overall.
