Iceland vs England Uefa Nations League 05.09.2020
The last time these two teams met was at Euro 2016 where Iceland pulled out a 2-1 comeback upset against the highly favoured English team. England, therefore, come into this match with a view to correct, what in their view, is a historical injustice and a smudge on their record. Yet again they come in as massive favourites, but they have proven themselves in recent matches against weaker competition, scoring 17 goals in their last three games against Kosovo, Montenegro and Bulgaria. Not just that, they have kept a clean sheet while at it. Despite dropping Maguire from the team following the court case before him in Greece, they still have very solid defenders and a good goalkeeper. We expect a tight encounter that should see one or both teams failing to score
