Iceland Romania betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this challenge will be for Iceland not to win. It is true that the home team has interesting players, however, the two teams are living different moments and this factor can be decisive. Iceland had two consecutive defeats, and Romania grabbed a beautiful victory in the last game. In this way, it is expected that the visiting team will be able to secure at least a draw.
