The most breaking point of the game
The Liechtenstein goalkeeper performed brilliantly, and Iceland's single attacking means were easily blocked.
Most Lychtenstein Breakthrough Point:
Home record. Liechtenstein has a record of three draws and eight defeats in their last 11 European qualifiers, their non-win since beating Lithuania 2-0 at home in June 2011, and they have kept just one clean sheet in their last 11 European qualifier home games.
Multiple losing streaks. Liechtenstein has lost 19 of its last 20 games in all competitions, and has lost all of its last four European qualifiers, scoring a single goal and conceding 15 goals in these four matches, and losing 3-0 against Finland and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The situation of the first battle. Liechtenstein lost 4-0 away from home Portugal in their first game, but goalkeeper Becher made seven saves to avoid a wider deficit.
Most Ball Iceland Breakthrough Point:
Head-to-head advantage. Iceland played Liechtenstein in the 2022 World Cup European qualifiers, beating them 4-1 away and then 4-0 at home.
Strength positioning. Iceland is ranked 63rd in the world, while Liechtenstein is ranked 198th in the world. Iceland's team is worth 28.35 million euros, and Liechtenstein's team is worth only 1.15 million euros, and there is a big gap between the two teams in hard power.
The situation of the first battle. Iceland lost 3-0 away to Bosnia and Herzegovina in the first round three days ago, Iceland dominated possession, gaining 63% possession in the game, but was crushed by the opponent's defensive counter-attacking tactics.
Iceland lost their first match to Bosnia and Herzegovina and will have no chance of making a mistake against underdogs Liechtenstein, who will have to win if they want to compete for a ticket to the main European Championship. Liechtenstein, the weakest team in the group, needs to try to get points at home to avoid consecutive defeats. Iceland captain and centre-back Gonardsson will return from banning this game, and the rest of the positions Iceland may not make adjustments, and Liechtenstein will not have much room for adjustment.
Jun Ge believes that Iceland's attack is basically based on Goodmunsson, who plays for Burnley, and he is also the most threatening Icelandic player against Bosnia-Herzegovina, Liechtenstein can slow down Iceland's attack rhythm as long as he keeps an eye on him, and goalkeeper Bicher showed extraordinary performance against Portugal, so this game I think Liechtenstein can avoid a crushing defeat at home.
