Iceland vs Germany: Prediction and Betting Tips

Iceland desperately need three points

Despite a late comeback to grab a point from Macedonia last weekend, Iceland desperately need three points. Any other result means Our Boys will miss the World cup next year. With just four points from five matches, Iceland are six points adrift of second-placed Armenia. However, the latter plays Liechtenstein and if they win, it will be very tough for Iceland.

Just three wins in 16 international game show that have big problems. Evidently, their biggest weakness is their defense who conceded on average 2.13 goals in those games. Also, things aren’t so well on the other side of the field. Vloarsson’s team scored twice in a match just once and have an average of one goal per game in their last five home games.

Iceland key points

• Iceland have one clean sheet in ten games
• Our Boys failed to score in four of their last ten matches
• Vloarsson’s team have not won in their last four home games

Another Germany win seems most likely 

In only his second game in charge, coach Hansi Flick had a great impact on Germany’s national side. Indeed, the Mannschaft completely demolished Armenia by beating them 6-0 and took the lead of Group J. Moreover, Flick will do his best to lead Germany to their 18th consecutive World Cup appearance.

Depending on other results, Germany can open a five points gap if they win here. Notably, the German’s never lost in Iceland and they will be looking to extend that run. Furthermore, Die Mannschaft never lost a WCQ away match, winning 39 and drawing 10. Thus an away win looks imminent here.

Germany Key points

• Germany scored in eight of their last ten matches
• The average goals scored by Germany in the last ten matches is 2.40
• In the last ten matches, Germany had three clean sheets

Iceland vs Germany Prediction

After the Euro disappointment, Germany are starting a new era under Hansi Flick. The former Bayern Munich coach had a great impact winning his first two matches to nil and scoring eight goals.

In addition, in their last match against Armenia, the Germans looked hungry to win. That was something that was missing during the last years of former coach Joachim Low.

Ultimately, we think Flick’s team will get stronger match by match and eventually will clinch the first spot. 1.19 is the odds for a Germany win at Vbet. Much higher odds are available, however.
