Iceland vs Israel – Both of these teams were unable to qualify for the 2018 World Cup and are considered among the continent’s lesser sides. Defense has been an area where both teams could use some work.
Israel is ranked 76th in the world and finished third in their qualifying group for the 2018 World Cup. As a result, they were unable to get admittance to Qatar, and it should be noted that they had conceded 23 goals in their ten matches.
They finished fifth in their group in the Euro Cup qualifications, but advanced to the playoffs thanks to their performance in the previous edition of the Nations League. They were unable to make it count, though, as they were defeated in the playoff semi-finals.
Iceland, however, is ranked 63rd in the world and finished second to last in their group in the World Cup qualifiers. They not only failed to qualify for the World Championships, but they did it in an embarrassing manner.
They only managed to win two games throughout the campaign, allowing a high number of goals to be scored in the process.
Furthermore, the bulk of head-to-head goals over the years have also come in large numbers, so expect a high-scoring contest on Monday.
