THE PREDICTION

An intriguing affair lies ahead between Belgium and Iceland, with both sides aware of how important three points would be early on before facing the likes of France and Italy. Whilst most people may write off Iceland, it would be foolish to underestimate Thorsteinn Halldorsson, one of the most highly rated coaches in Europe. Neither team will want to give much away in this one, knowing that defeat would serve as a massive blow to their respective hopes of knockout qualification and chances could be at a premium. Therefore, backing the draw is worth considering.
