This UEFA Nations League fixture brings Estonia to host Iceland, with both sides having played their most recent match in this competition as well, but they picked up very different results. Estonia won 1-0, while Iceland won 3-0. What makes this game interesting is that the hosts are standing firm on a stubborn defence, while the visitors have just scored more than they have in a long time. Estonia are unbeaten in 5 straight matches across all competitions, and their last 3 in the Nations League have also come without defeat. Their attack may not be flashy, but their positioning and their ability to find the moment to counter make them harder and harder for opponents to break down. Iceland, for their part, have won 2 in a row in this competition, both by a 3-0 scoreline. Their attack is clicking, but it remains to be seen how much of that standard they can keep up on the road. If Iceland can keep their attacking game going as they did in the last two matches and break through the hosts' defence first, the game is likely to flow the visitors' way rather than getting stuck in a midfield stalemate, because the visitors' attacking quality looks superior at the moment. Estonia, meanwhile, will need to rely on the solidity of their defence and make their counters count if they want to take points.
