Iceland vs North Macedonia: Preview

Iceland got off to a shaky start in their quest for World Cup qualification. They began by losing to Germany by a large margin of 3-0, only to be followed by a humiliating 2-0 defeat at the hands of Armenia. This certainly lowered their morale, even despite the fact that they were able to defeat Lichtenstein 4-1. On Thursday, Iceland faced Romania and, despite having 55% possession, they were beaten 2-0. In recent times, Iceland has failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, conceding 10 goals in that period. Arnar Vidarsson’s squad is currently placed 5th in the points table with 3 points from the 3 matches played.

North Macedonia may have begun the qualifying group with a defeat against Romania, but the Lions have responded brilliantly since then, defeating Liechtenstein 5-0 and Germany 2-1, with Iceland now in their sights. The country had a tough experience at Euro 2020, as they lost every game and were eliminated at the group stage after conceding a total of eight goals. The Macedonian team is presently third in the group, barely two points behind Germany; however, they are on a four-game losing streak heading into this match.
