Recent form

Iceland

Iceland's recent form shows a mix of impressive performances and challenging encounters. They've won four of their last six matches, including a notable victory against England in a friendly. However, their most recent game resulted in a heavy 4-0 defeat to the Netherlands. The team has demonstrated strong offensive capabilities, scoring 9 goals in 6 games, with a particularly high-scoring 4-1 win against Israel in the Euros Qualifiers. Defensively, they've managed three clean sheets, but have also conceded 7 goals, including 4 in their latest match. Their goal difference remains positive at +2, and they've maintained a balanced split between high and low-scoring games, with 50% of matches seeing over 2.5 goals. Interestingly, both teams scored in only 33% of these games, indicating Iceland's ability to dominate some matches while struggling in others.

Montenegro

Montenegro's recent form has been inconsistent, with their last six games showing an alternating pattern of wins and losses. They have managed to secure three wins and three clean sheets in this period, demonstrating their defensive capabilities. However, their goal-scoring record is modest, averaging 1.17 goals per game. The team has struggled in their most recent matches, suffering back-to-back losses against Georgia and Belgium in international friendlies. Notably, their 3-1 loss to Hungary in the Euros Qualifiers stands out as the highest-scoring game in this stretch, with four goals in total. Despite conceding more goals than they've scored overall, Montenegro has shown resilience in keeping the majority of their games (67%) under 2.5 goals, suggesting a tendency towards tighter, low-scoring encounters.
