Ukraine doesn’t have a home-field edge, but they will have huge support in Wroclaw against Iceland. Their compatriots from all over Europe and the locals will root for them to reach Germany, but to do so, a win over the Vikings is a must.
Before Betting on Ukraine vs. Iceland
Ukraine was better than Bosnia and Herzegovina on the road, 1-2, and that’s why they reached the playoff finals. It was the second time this country had secured the playoffs for an international competition by beating Bosnia in their own home. Right now, the Ukrainians haven’t lost for the past five meetings.
Also, this crew has just one defeat over the previous ten meetings, with three draws and six victories. In all but one of those successes, Ukraine netted at least twice. They love to lay low and wait for a counter-attack because of an extremely pacey midfield, able to transform in a matter of seconds.
On the other hand, Iceland isn’t as strong as it was several years ago, but it is still a very nasty rival. The Vikes have secured their spot in the playoff finals, beating Israel on the road, 1-4, in a game in which we saw them dominating throughout all 90 minutes. Truth be told, Iceland has played well lately and has three straight wins.
The other two were in friendly international events, against Guatemala, 0-1, and Honduras, 0-2, played on the road this January. All these triumphs away from home are boosting Iceland’s morale ahead of the trip to Poland. Plus, the fact that Ukraine stands as the favorite puts Iceland in an even better position, removing the pressure off of them.

Ukraine is a better team based on the roster and recent results. Iceland is in solid form, but their recent rivals can’t be compared to Ukraine’s. Also, we saw the Ukrainians battling top European teams in the past, while Iceland wasn’t competitive against such units. We will bet on the “hosts” to triumph here and advance to EURO 2024.
