Betting tips for France VS Iceland 25.03.2019
In a repeat of the 2016 European Championship quarterfinals, France hosts Iceland at the Stade de France for their second Group H match. The Icelandic team needs to lift their spirits after winning just one of their last 16 matches (G1, E6 , P9), but has never managed to beat France in all its history.
The home side began their qualification campaign by defeating Moldova on tour status by 4-1 last Friday. With that result, the men of Didier Deschamps have lost only one of their last 16 official matches (G12, E3, P1) and if they win here again, it is likely that they will not receive goals against France as they have maintained their unbeaten goal in all but two of his 18 previous victories in qualifying for the European Championship in local condition.
Going through a completely opposite performance, the Icelandic team had a run of six consecutive defeats in official matches but returned to winning ways after defeating Andorra 2-0 on the first day. However, a concern for Erik Hamrén will be that his team has conceded at least two goals in 13 of their last 16 matches, while also not scoring six times. In addition, Iceland has received at least two goals in seven of its last eight meetings against France.
Predictably, France has a dominant record in the direct matches against Iceland (G9, E4) and has scored more than three times the total of goals it has received against (GF 37, GC 12).
Players to watch: The top scorer of the current squad of France is Olivier Giroud (34 goals), who has scored in each of his last two appearances with the French cast. Meanwhile, Alfreð Finnbogason (ICE) has scored ten goals in the Bundesliga for Augsburg this season.
Statistics to consider: France have been leading at halftime without conceding goals in the six official games they have played at home against Iceland.
Iceland has conceded 35 goals in its last 16 matches, which gives an average of 2.19 per game.
Both teams have scored in just two of France's last 15 matches in European qualifiers and in home condition.
