Iceland’s impressive journey in EURO 2016, defying all expectations to reach the quarterfinals, was a standout story. However, their strength has significantly diminished since then. In the current qualifications, they have only managed to collect six points from six matches. Presently, Iceland finds themselves seven points behind Slovakia, who are in second place. Therefore, Age Hareide’s team will need a miracle to secure another EURO appearance. Their recent track record shows three losses in the last four games. Nevertheless, they did manage to secure a 1-0 victory at home against Bosnia and Herzegovina in the previous round.
There is still a strong possibility for Luxembourg to make their first EURO appearance. They are just three points behind Slovakia, meaning that if they win and Slovakia loses on Friday in Porto, Luxembourg could tie with them in the standings. Luxembourg has been performing well lately, winning three out of their last four matches. However, their previous game was a disastrous 9-0 loss to Portugal on the road. Despite this crushing defeat, if they approach the next four matches strategically, Luc Holtz’s team has a chance to achieve a historic result.
Iceland vs Luxembourg pick: Both teams to score &— yes
Iceland boasts a formidable offense, having found the net in four out of their last five matches. Conversely, Luxembourg has managed to score an impressive total of seven goals in their past four games.
Last month, there was a head-to-head match between Iceland and Luxembourg, with Luxembourg emerging victorious with a 3-1 home win.
The most favorable wager for this match would be betting on both teams to score &— yes.

Iceland team news
Gylfi Sigurdsson caught our attention when Iceland’s head coach Age Hareide revealed his lineup for the October matches.
Earlier this year, the former Premier League star, who had previously been under scrutiny for sexual abuse allegations, was finally cleared and no longer under the radar.
After joining Lyngby this summer, Sigurdsson’s playing time has been limited to just two matches. As a result, it will be challenging for him to secure a starting position against Luxembourg on Friday.
