Argentina vs Iceland: Match Preview
Lionel Scaloni’s Argentina lifted the World Cup in 2022, thanks in large part to the magic of Messi, and the holders will be desperate to do the same once again when the tournament kicks off in the US this week.
La Albiceleste finished top of the South American table with an impressive 38 points – nine more than the runners-up Ecuador, who are being tipped as an underdog coming into the competition.
Messi returned to the matchday squad against Honduras after recovering from a hamstring injury, though he remained an unused sub
The Inter Miami forward is unlikely to start on Wednesday, but he could see a few minutes of action in order to build some momentum before the World Cup, and Scaloni may start Lautaro Martinez and Thiago Almada in attack.
FEATURE: Who are the biggest clubs in South America
Iceland missed out on the World Cup for the second time in a row after reaching the 2018 finals, and they will be hoping to make a fresh start in the coming months under manager Arnar Gunnlaugsson.
Strakamir Okkar come into this friendly following a 1-0 defeat against Japan on May 31, a game that saw Koki Ogawa take advantage of FIFA’s new ’10-second rule’ to score an 87th-minute decider.
That loss extended Iceland’s winless run to five consecutive matches, a stretch that goes back to a 2-0 victory over Azerbaijan back in November of last year
FourFourTwo’s Prediction
Argentina 3-0 Iceland
FourFourTwo can’t see anything but a routine win for Scaloni’s side, with Alvarez to score at least one.
