Personal AreaMatch Overview
Iceland and Portugal will face off in the fourth round of their group J clash in the UEFA Euro Qualification on Tuesday at the Laugardalsvollur. Portugal have a big upper hand over their opponents, and they will be keen to extend it to all facets of this match. Iceland have a good midfield at their disposal, but it remains to be seen how well they recycle the ball coming in from their defenders.
Key Highlights
Portugal are ranked in the first position of the league table with 9 points inside their kitty at the time of writing. Iceland, on the other hand, are perched upon the fifth spot with a mere three points to their name. All fingers point towards Portugal being the stronger of the two teams in this contest. Add to this the fact that Iceland have never beaten Portugal in the past.
Injury Report
Iceland will feel extremely grateful due to the fact that they do not have any of their top players ruled out of this game through injuries. Portugal, on the other hand, will have to make do without the services of Renato Sanches, Toti Gomes and Goncalo Ramos for this game. All three of them suffer from muscle injuries and are expected to come back in a few weeks.
Prediction
Portugal appear to be the downright favourites to win this game. We expect them to do so quite comfortably. They come into this game on the back of a stupendous showing against Bosnia and Herzegovina whereas Iceland were thrashed by a 1-2 scoreline by Slovakia.
