Israel vs Iceland Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips
Israel vs Iceland Preview
It will be one step closer to the Euro 2024 for Israel and Iceland as they meet in a crucial Euro 2024 playoff semifinal on Thursday (Mar 21) at the Pancho Aréna Stadium in Hungary. An adopted home for the Euro 2024 qualifiers due to the war situation in the nation, Israel are forced to play their home matches away having qualified as the top nation from League B. Iceland on the flip side labored to reach the 12 teams before being drawn on Path B for the playoff semis.
Israel finished third in the group stage of the Euro 2024 qualifiers having won four matches and drawn three. They needed a late equaliser against Switzerland while they lost to Romania to dent hopes of a direct qualification last November. A priceless win against Andorra however in their final league match saw them clinch a place in the playoffs.

Iceland are the lucky losers of the draw and advanced to the playoffs despite losing six matches and winning only thrice during the group stage. Their bid was only helped by their superb showing in the Nations League which helped them take their spot in the playoff round. Despite being an away match technically, Iceland could have good support as the match will be played in Hungary.

A man to watch for the home side will be veteran Eran Zahavi, who scored a brace for Maccabi Tel Aviv in a 3-1 victory over Hapoel Haifa over the weekend. Manor Solomon is still sidelined due to injury having not featured for the club since the turn of the year. Johann Berg Gudmundsson, along with Blackburn Rovers winger Arnor Sigurdsson, should start against Israel even if the latter lost his place in Burnley’s starting lineup.
