📈 Iceland v Ukraine Form & Stats
Iceland will feel as though they have a real chance of finishing second in this group and can take a big step towards that with all three points here. They beat Azerbaijan 5-0 in their first home qualifying match, but will expect a sterner test here from Ukraine, who risk getting cut adrift of Iceland and France without a positive result here.
Ukraine will have been disappointed with their 1-1 draw against Azerbaijan last time out. Azerbaijan are comfortably the weakest team in the group and you have to ensure that you collect maximum points against them to remain competitive in qualifying. As Ukraine have failed to do that, there is real pressure on them to get a result in this game, against a much tougher opponent.
These sides faced off last year as part of a playoff for the European Championship, so they will be familiar with each other. Ukraine ran out 2-1 winners on that occasion.
