Liechtenstein vs Iceland Prediction and Betting Tips | March 26, 2023

England v Iceland - UEFA Nations League
Liechtenstein and Iceland face off on Sunday.

Liechtenstein and Iceland go head-to-head at the Rheinpark Stadion in Group J of the 2024 European Championship qualifiers on Sunday (March 26).

Having suffered defeats in their group opener, both sides will look to bounce back and get their campaign up and running. Liechtenstein were denied a dream start to their quest for a place in Germany, as they were thrashed 4-0 by a rampant Portugal side on Thursday (March 23).

While becoming the most capped player in men’s international football, Cristiano Ronaldo netted twice to ensure that Roberto Martinez kicked off his tenure as the Selecao boss on a winning note. The Blue-Reds have now lost 14 games across competitions, with their last win coming in October 2020, when they edged out Luxembourg 2-1 in a friendly.

Meanwhile, Iceland suffered an opening-day defeat too, as they were thrashed 3-0 by Bosnia and Herzegovina. Arnar Vidarsson’s men have now failed to win their last three games since the Baltic Cup final in November, where they edged out ten-man Latvia on penalties.

However, Iceland will fancy their chances of an immediate bounce-back, as they're on a run of three wins against Liechtenstein.

  • With six wins from their last nine meetings, Iceland have been dominant in the fixture.
