Iceland U21 Team Overview
Iceland beat the Faroe Islands 2-0 in their last qualifying match. Both goals came in the first half.
Iceland’s main strength is their attack. The hosts have scored in 12 of their last 13 home qualifiers and netted 15 goals in five such group matches. At the end of September, Iceland were fourth, but they thrashed Switzerland 5-1 and took a decisive step towards second place. The team’s top scorer in qualifying is Daníel Guðjohnsen with seven goals. The other side of the coin is their defence: Iceland have conceded in ten consecutive home matches.

⭐ Editor’s Prediction
Iceland U21 have scored in 12 of their last 13 home qualifiers. They have scored 15 goals in five such group matches. But the hosts are vulnerable at the back too: they have failed to keep a clean sheet in ten consecutive home matches. Greece U21 have scored in seven straight away matches, keeping a clean sheet in just three of them. We expect both teams to score: that has happened in nine of Iceland U21’s last ten home matches. Bet - Both Teams to Score - Yes.
