Slovakia vs Iceland Prediction

Slovakia Form

Slovakia added two wins to their account in their three most recent outings, as they beat Liechtenstein by 3-0. Their next match left them empty-handed in a 3-2 defeat against Portugal, followed up by a 0-1 win against Luxembourg. Slovakia managed a strong return of four wins from their previous six internationals, where they also drew zero and lost two. They scored nine goals and conceded five times.

Iceland Form

Iceland look in good shape before their upcoming match as they seek to remain unbeaten. In their last three matches, they first beat Bosnia-Herzegovina by 1-0, before drawing 1-1 with Luxembourg. They were back as winners last time out, when they took out Liechtenstein by a 4-0 scoreline. In their last six internationals Iceland won twice, while also recording one draw. They endured three defeats in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying seven goals conceded and eight scored.

Slovakia are really tough to break down, but as the expense of scoring only few goals themselves. A low scoring encounter is on the menu this coming Thursday, when Iceland come visiting.

Iceland have gone three games without suffering a defeat.
