Iceland Women vs Finland Women Predictions

• Iceland have warmed up for the tournament with tests against strong opposition
• Finland struggled in their Nations League campaign amid injury issues
• The Finns lost all three games at Euro 2022

Iceland to make strong start

Iceland’s women have only once qualified for the knockout rounds at the Euros, but they did manage to go unbeaten at the 2022 tournament. They drew all three group games, despite landing with France, Belgium, and Italy – ultimately finishing above the Italians.

Iceland have faced some tough tests since booking their place the Euros a year ago. They’ve faced the USA, Canada, and France in friendlies, while they held their own in draws with Group A rivals Switzerland and Norway in the Nations League.

Iceland’s hopes of a place in the next round rest on a win in their opener. While they’re a tough side to beat, the key for them is turning draws into victories.

Opponents Finland lost all three games at Euro 2022, conceding eight times and scoring only once. While they had a successful qualifying campaign to close out 2024, they slipped to second in their Nations League pool after struggling against a Serbia side that failed to qualify for the Euros.

Injury issues have hampered their build-up to the tournament, offering Iceland a perfect opportunity to get off to a winning start.
