Ukraine needs only a victory to finish second in the group. They already have one win against Iceland with a score of 5:3 as guests. However, the two losses to France could prove fatal, especially the one on Thursday with 0:4, even though the score was 0:0 at halftime. Thus, Ukraine currently falls behind Iceland on goal difference.
In this case, a draw will be enough for Iceland to maintain its second position in the final standings. In four out of their five matches in the group, they scored at least two goals, even netting once in their away match against France, which they lost 1:2. So in the other matches, they definitely compensated for the loss to Ukraine, but they need to be careful not to allow another loss to the same opponent now.
Prediction: goal/goals: YESIn my opinion, it is quite likely that we will see goals from both teams again. Iceland does not miss the opportunity to score, even more than once, but they have already conceded five goals from Ukraine in their first match. Now it is unlikely that we will witness so many goals, but I expect at least one goal from both teams again.
