Tindastoll women hosted Grindavik women in the Premier League on 12 October 2026, and the visitors ran out comfortable 84-62 winners. The result puts Grindavik five points clear of the hosts in the table, though neither side has accumulated points yet — the standings are built on wins and losses alone. By then the visitors had already shown they could string results together, while the hosts looked more like they were chasing consistency.
Tindastoll sit eighth after 18 games with seven wins and 11 defeats, while Grindavik occupy fifth place with 11 victories and seven losses. The gap between them isn't vast, but the way the match played out suggested the hosts had not won since their last meaningful effort. And here's the thing — Grindavik kept their heads throughout, even when Tindastoll tried to claw back.
We had backed the visitors to win, calling 53 per cent confidence before the tip-off, and the prediction came good. It wasn't a surprise, really. Grindavik have the deeper squad, and Tindastoll never got out of second gear defensively. The hosts pressed high at times, but the visitors turned to the kids when needed and still held on grimly.
Recent form tells its own story. Tindastoll's last outing was a 101-67 victory over Fjölnir women, but before that they dropped 88-58 against Njarðvík women on three separate occasions. Grindavik, meanwhile, beat Haukar 81-71 on 6 October and followed it with a 104-65 demolition of Armann women. That consistency is what makes the difference when the wheels come off.
The scoreline leaves Tindastoll 11 points behind Grindavik in the standings, though the table has only just started to take shape. Fourteen games remain for both sides, and the hosts will fancy their chances if they can fix what went wrong tonight. The visitors, by contrast, have already shown they are not afraid to push.
