THE PREDICTION

Iceland and Romania each have three points to their name so far in Group J, so defeat for either side here would prove a huge blow to their hopes of breaking into the top two. Both teams have a win and two defeats to their name with six goals conceded over the course of those three fixtures and this contest is expected to be another difficult for the two defences on show, as they are likely to be afforded little protection as both Iceland and Romania push hard for victory here. With that in mind, a high scoring encounter appears to be on the cards so consider over 2.5 goals scored regardless of who comes out on top.
