Second place in Group D will be at stake when Iceland and Ukraine square off against each other in what promises to be a close World Cup qualifier. Iceland aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to France, but they face yet another difficult task against Ukraine. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Lille midfielder Hakon Arnar Haraldsson, who scored the winner in the Europa League clash with AS Roma. Serhiy Rebrov’s troops, on the other hand, are determined to record their first win of the process.
As both Ukraine and Iceland will go for a win in Friday’s encounter, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Roma striker Artem Dovbyk should be recalled to the starting XI after coming off the bench in a 1-1 draw with Azerbaijan, while Nottingham Forest left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko has been ruled out with injury.
This World Cup 2026 match will be played on Friday 10 October 2025 at 19:45.
