Match facts

England

  • This will be the third encounter between England and Iceland. So far, England are unbeaten, having drawn 1-1 in June 1982 and won 6-1 in June 2004.
  • England and Iceland’s two previous encounters have produced nine goals.
  • This is the first time England have reached the knockout stages in two consecutive EURO tournaments (2012, 2016).
  • England are unbeaten in their last 10 games at the European Championships, shoot-outs excluded (W5 D5). Their last defeat dates back to 13 June 2004 against France.
  • If Wayne Rooney plays, it will be his 115th cap which would equal David Beckham’s record for most games by an outfield player for England. He scored a brace against Iceland in his only previous game versus the Nordic island, back in June 2004.

Iceland

  • Iceland are unbeaten at EURO 2016 so far (W1 D2). In fact, they have only lost once across their last nine competitive matches (W4 D4).
  • All three of Iceland’s group games at EURO 2016 have seen both teams score.
  • Iceland were the only team, along with Spain, to start with the same lineup in all three of their group games.
  • Iceland striker Kolbeinn Sigthorsson has only has two shots in 245 minutes at EURO 2016. None of them have been on target.
  • Iceland’s Hannes Thór Halldórsson has made more saves than any other goalkeeper at this year’s EURO (18).
  • Halldórsson has found Sigthorsson with 30 passes/long kicks, the most prolific route from a goalkeeper to a striker at EURO 2016.

Predictions

As Alan Shearer mentioned, no teams will be scared of playing England in the knockout stages. So Iceland will fancy their chances and this is going to be a tough outing for Rooney and company.

England will eventually get their win, but Iceland wont give up that easily and this has the prospect of a cracker of a match on Monday night.

Final Score – 3 : 2
