Iceland vs Andorra Predictions

Iceland’s push for a place at Euro 2020 took a hit on Friday, as they went down 1-0 at home to France. Their last home game of the campaign comes on Monday night, as they host Andorra. This should be a comfortable victory for the home side, especially as they look to get their top two push back on track.

Iceland are now six points off the top two, with Turkey and France in fine form. This week’s meeting between the pair will likely send the winner through to the finals, so Iceland’s chances of another major tournament are fading. Their Nations League performance was another blow to their chances, as their playoff hopes are still up in the air.

Andorra were able to leap off the bottom of the group after their win on Friday. They beat Moldova 1-0, which was a huge result for a side who tend to be the whipping boys in these groups. However, they are likely to be on the back foot once again in this trip. Iceland are a quality side and they must be aiming to turn around their latest loss.

Iceland have made a huge impact on major tournaments in recent years, but they have a huge task to make it to the next tournament. Regardless of where they go from here, they need to see off Andorra this week. They are heavy favourites for the victory, having won all six previous meetings with the minnows without conceding a goal.

Iceland are heavy favourites for another win to nil this week. That’s no surprise given that the visitors have failed to score in their last six away games. They’ve lost all of their away trips to nil in this campaign so far, while Iceland already have victories to nil over the likes of Moldova, Albania and Andorra so far.

We don’t expect the outsiders to score here, but that doesn’t mean this will be a quiet clash. Iceland put three past Moldova in the last meeting here, while they have 10 goals in three home meetings with Andorra. That’s nothing new for the visitors, who are used to heavy defeats on their travels.

In the last qualifying campaign, the visitors conceded three or more at Portugal, Hungary, Switzerland and Latvia. We expect Iceland to produce a similar result in this clash, with the hosts in the mood to turn around their latest defeat. As a result, we are backing over 2.5 goals in this clash and both teams to score – No. For this, we need Iceland to rack up the goals while keeping a clean sheet, which is par for the course for the visitors.
