The New Saints welcomes Vikingur Reykjavik to Park Hall for this match in the Europa League qualification. The home side has their work cut out for them after they lost the first leg of the tie 2-0 to Vikingur Reykjavik. The New Saints have to win this match by a margin of three of more goals to qualify while a victory by two goals will see the match go into extra time. They qualified for this competition by winning the Welsh Premier League by a mammoth 21 points back in May. The New Saints completed a domestic double when they won the Welsh FA Cup later that month. They have not been in the best of form recently as they have lost three of their last four matches. Their home form however has been excellent, winning their last seven matches at home.

Vikingur Reykjavik will feel they have one foot in the next round as they take a two goal lead into this match. They are in the enviable position of being able to lose this match and still win the tie. They must make sure that if they lose the defeat is just by a single goal as they will win on aggregate goals. They narrowly won the Iceland League last season by a single point to qualify for this competition. Vikingur Reykjavik brings excellent form into this match as they have only lost once in their last 13 matches across all competitions with eleven wins and a draw. They also have an impressive away record winning eight of their last nine matches.
