Slovakia vs Iceland Odds
Slovakia Team News
Slovakia has had a phenomenal run in these European Championship qualifiers, particularly in a highly competitive group where four teams had equal chances for the second spot (the first spot seemed secured by Portugal from the start). The hosts have secured five victories in eight games, with a draw against Luxembourg and two losses to Portugal, but notably, they put up strong resistance in both matches against one of the strongest European teams.
With a victory against Luxembourg in the previous round, Slovakia is on the brink of qualifying for the EURO, needing a draw against Iceland to secure their spot mathematically. However, it’s believed that the hosts won’t play it safe and will aim to establish an early advantage in the match, making the rest of the penultimate qualifier more manageable.
🇸🇰 Slovakia are on the brink of EURO 2024!

Iceland Team News
Island had the worst possible start to the EURO qualifiers, despite an expected 7:0 victory over Liechtenstein; they suffered three consecutive defeats. They were beaten 3:0 by Bosnia in the first round, followed by losses to Portugal 1:0 and Luxembourg 3:1. After just four matches, it became evident that their mission to reach the European Championship was nearly impossible.
Although Iceland significantly improved afterward, securing victories against Bosnia and Liechtenstein and a draw against Luxembourg, more is needed to clinch one of the top two spots. The team’s hope now relies solely on theoretical chances. Iceland must defeat Slovakia on Thursday evening, win their last match against Portugal away, and hope that Slovakia loses their final game against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
