Ukraine is technically the home side but due to the ongoing situation this final is in neutral Poland at Wroclaw Stadium. Ukraine finished their group in 3rd behind Italy and England, and above Malta and North Macedonia. They finished unbeaten at “home” with 2 wins and 2 draws. In semi finals they overcame Bosnia & Herzegovina 2-1. Iceland finished 4th of 6 teams. Below Portugal, Slovakia and Portugal but above Bosnia and Liechtenstein. Away form saw just 1 win and 4 defeats. In semifinal they defeated Israel 4-1
Team rankings:
Ukraine – World ranked 24 with 1553 ranking points.
Iceland – World ranked 73 with 1342 ranking points.
Team news: Winger Viktor Tsygankov is returning to fitness and may feature here after missing the semi win over Bosnia. Iceland has some injury problems with both Arnor Sigurdsson and Roy Revivo doubts, both were both stretched off in their ill-tempered semi win over Israel. They already have doubts over key man Johann Berg Gudmundsson also.
Head-to-head statistics: 4 games – 1wins Ukraine, 1 wins Iceland and 2 draws.
Betting selection – Ukraine is looking to make it four straight qualifications for Euros with a win here. Iceland has one qualification and made it to quarter finals in 2016. With some injuries for Iceland I think they will struggle here and take Ukraine to win at 1.53 or 8-15 with Williamhill.
