1. Deild
Team Comparison
TB
Suduroy
Match Preview
All eyes turn to the home ground on May 9, 2026 as TB welcome Suduroy in a 1. Deild encounter that promises tension, intrigue and no shortage of subplot. Josh Allen had an impressive first game at the Buffalo Bills’ new stadium in their second NFL fixture of the season.
There is plenty riding on this 1. Deild encounter for TB and Suduroy alike, and neither will want to leave the home ground empty-handed. The hosts have struggled for consistency, D in their last five pointing to a win rate of 33.33%. The visitors have been formidable away from home, L in their last five and a win rate of 66.67% that puts them in elite company. Goals could be in short supply or plentiful — TB average 1.92 per game to Suduroy's 3.04, and that gap may dictate the rhythm of the contest. The 24-year-old finished first in one of Arsenal's big pre-season testing challenges - a 1.4km run at full pace.
Tactically, the contest promises a fascinating contrast. TB will look to impose their style on home soil, while Suduroy are likely to have ideas of their own about how to gain the upper hand. But the key difference is understanding the game, in possession and out of possession.
The fixture boasts genuine star quality. With Wilfried Kouassi Yao topping the 1. Deild scoring charts at 3 goals, the stage is set for the kind of individual brilliance that can swing a contest. How each side deals with the other's danger men — and who takes their chances when they come — will be central to the outcome. Leeds are also looking to bring in another striker to provide cover for Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Lukas Nmecha, who both have patchy injury records.
Without the market to lean on, the contest feels genuinely open — and the outcome may come down to which side handles the occasion better. Neither side holds a clear edge, and a 3-3 draw would be a fitting reflection of the balance between them. With the standings tight and form on the line, this is a fixture neither side will want to lose. Joe Gomez is expected to miss the start of Liverpool's Premier League campaign through injury - but it is not likely to impact the Reds' transfer plans.
