Iceland head over to the Parc des Princes this coming Tuesday to face title favourites France in a round 2 match in the World Cup Qualification. France had a good reading on Iceland in their last two meetings, which they won by 4-0 and 1-0, respectively.

France booked their first win of the season in the World Cup Qualification as they claimed all three points in the opener. They are of course looking for a follow-up come matchday in round two,

France scored 2.2 goals on average in their past ten matches, hitting the target 22 times. They conceded four goals, an average of 0.4 and pulled off six clean sheets.

Iceland scored 17 goals, conceded 15 and managed three clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

France vs Iceland Prediction

France Form

France look back on their last three matches with two victories to show for their efforts. Against Spain, they were left empty-handed in a 5-4 defeat, but they avenged themselves by beating Germany in a 0-2 win. They followed that up with a 0-2 win against Ukraine in their most recent outing. France won three of their previous six matches at Parc des Princes in the World Cup Qualification. They drew three as well, but suffered no defeats, scoring 14 goals to three against.

Iceland Form

The results have been up and down for Iceland, who beat Scotland by 1-3. Following that up proved too difficult, as they lost 1-0 against Northern Ireland, before claiming a victory in a 5-0 game against Azerbaijan. Iceland claimed two wins against one draw and three defeats in their last six away matches in the World Cup Qualification. The scoreline from these matches reads nine goals conceded and eight scored.

We expect France to make home advantage count but equally, we do not expect a festival of goals against Iceland. Hence, our punt on the home win in a match with no more than three goals.

France vs Iceland Betting Tips

Looking at the market for a goalscorer, it seems a good idea to side with Kylian Mbappe, who is performing well for France. He found the back of the net three times in his most recent national team outings. He'll be out to add more goals for his country against Iceland. The visitors will be looking up to Victor Palsson to find the net once again, after managing two goals for Iceland in his last six matches.
