WORLD CUP QUALIFYING

Iceland should get a result away to struggling Macedonia

Nordic nation evens to take advantage of the Macedonian malaise

There aren’t enough qualifiers taking place to attempt another draw treble so we’ve instead focussed on the glamour tie between Macedonia and Iceland.

Iceland are evens with 888sport to win or draw on the double chance, while they are 5/2 to draw and 7/2 to win. Macedonia have gone six games without a win - during which period they’ve drawn a home friendly with Moldova. In addition, they’ve won just one of their last six home games - against Scotland - while Iceland have lost just two of their last five on the road.

UPDATE: 888sport are also allowing in-running betting on this match, with the double chance now out to 11/10!
