Germany will lock horns with Iceland on Thursday in their sixth FIFA World Cup qualifier match at the Laugardalsvollur stadium. Following their round of 16 exit at the hands of England in the UEFA European Championship earlier this year, the German squad has a point to prove to their critics. So far, Germany has been impressive in FIFA’s European qualifier games as they have won four out of their opening five games and have consolidated their position as Group leaders with 12 points in their kitty.
On the other hand, despite their lacklustre show in the ongoing event, the Iceland team is capable of registering against big teams and they will aim to do the same in their encounter as well. The Nordic country is coming into this game after registering a 2-2 draw against North Macedonia on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Germany recorded a thumping 6-0 win over Armenia in their previous fixture.
The 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers match between Iceland vs Germany, will kick off at 12:15 am (IST).
