France Iceland betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This game has some tendency to be unbalanced, since France holds players much superior to the set of Iceland. Thus, the French set should enter the field in a rather offensive way, looking for the goal from the first minute, just as he did in the last challenge. On the other hand, the visiting group will have to keep the housekeepers in the first minutes, however, the defeat will eventually exist. Having said that, we found it very interesting to risk the victory of France in the late 90's.

Preview
France and Iceland meet at Stade de France, in a match for this stage of the EC Qualification (Qualifying Round). In the last 3 years these teams met twice: the earliest head‑to‑head was played on 11‑10‑2018 and ended in a (2‑2) draw, and the latest on 03‑07‑2016, which ended in a (5‑2) win by France.

Analysis France

The home team plays their second match in Group H, after the (1‑4) win in their first match for this group stage, against Moldova. In the last 10 home matches France has won 8 and tied 2. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

France start this game with a 1-0 win in Moldova, with Varane, Griezmann, Giroud and Mbappé signed by the team. Didier Deschamps is expected to keep the team 4-3-3 ahead of Iceland, who have also won in the first match, with a focus on maintaining possession of the ball and attacks organized through the corridors: Mbappé, Matuidi and Giroud make up the front of attack of the French team. The whole squad is available for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Hugo Lloris, Benjamin Pavard, Layvin Kurzawa, Samuel Umtiti, Raphaël Varane, N'Golo Kanté, Paul Pogba, Blaise Matuidi, Antoine Griezmann, Kylian Mbappé, Olivier Giroud.

Analysis Iceland

The away team comes to this 2nd round of Group H after a win in their debut in this group stage, against Andorra, by (0‑2). In the last 10 away matches Iceland has won 2, tied 4 and lost 4. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 3 of the last 15 matches, they have reached half‑time in front in all of those 3 matches and have held on to the lead in 1. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 12 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 13 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 6 of their 16 goals between minutes (16'‑30').

The Icelandic squad starts this game with a 0-2 victory over Andorra, with the best start to this EURO 2020 qualifying round: the three-point goals have been signed by Bjarnason and Kjartansson. In this match against France, coach Erik Hamrén should keep 4-4-2 with Sigurdsson and Finnbogason being the team's most advanced pieces. On the other hand, Gunnarsson is one of the most important men in the tactical scheme of Iceland, being very competent in the defensive balance. For this match the visiting coach has no major absences.

Confirmed Lineup: Hannes Þór Halldórsson, Sverrir Ingi Ingason, Hörður Magnússon, Birkir Már Sævarsson, Rúnar Már Sigurjónsson, Aron Gunnarsson, Gylfi Sigurðsson, Kári Árnason, Birkir Bjarnason, Albert Guðmundsson.
Coach: R. Sigurðsson, E. Hamrén.
