Match Preview :

Nigeria vs Iceland match is going to be held on 22-th June at Volgograd Arena (Volgograd)

This is first match of world cup 2018 because of that both team have to show us their best skills, combinations, tactics to start group stage successfully.

Nigeria will be looking to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Croatia when they take on Iceland in their second group game at the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals. The Super Eagles failed to create a descent opportunity to score in their opener and, no doubt, they face a difficult task in Friday’s football match against Iceland.

The Icelanders did well to hold star-studded Argentina to a draw in the opening match of their World Cup campaign and, as a result, they stayed in the race for a place in the knockout stages. Iceland are more of a team than Nigeria and we predict that Gylfi Sigurdsson and Co. are going to pick up all three points from their second group game. A man to watch in the African side will be Chelsea Victor Moses, who could prove a handful for the opposition defenders.

The Favorite Team is Nigeria, But Iceland will try to take minimum one point or win the match.
