Iceland influenced an eminent World Cup to make a big appearance by holding any semblance of Argentina to a 1-1 draw on Saturday evening. Would they be able to expand on such outcome to get the notable lady triumph at the opposition on Friday when they go up against Nigeria at Volgograd Arena?
Head mentor Heimir Hallgrimsson can be pleased with his group's superb protective execution against one of the occasion's top choices Argentina.

The completely recuperated Augsburg striker Alfred Finnbogason did his piece of the activity restoring Caballero's avoidance once more into the net only four minutes after his group was separated helping the Scandinavian debutants spare a point against the most grounded furnish in the gathering.

Nigeria Iceland Head-to-head
The two groups are going to bolt horns surprisingly on Friday.
Nigeria versus Iceland Prediction
The misfortune to Croatia made it three on the skip for Super Eagles following thrashings to Argentina and France four years prior in Brazil.
The conflict with Iceland should give them a reasonable opportunity to see a conclusion to such run. Rohr will want to evade possess goals this time out as the group surrendered two consequent claim goals at the opposition in the event that we tally the one from the last 16 cycle four years back against France.
We expect a nearby challenge with not very many goal scoring chances at the two closures here.
The two chiefs favor a restrained guarded disapproved of approach and despite the fact that the draw won't be quite a bit of an assistance for either side, we consider it to be the most amiable of three results here. You can back it at the chances of 3.20.
Under 2.5 goals FT should be an investor wager at 1.53, while you can likewise back low number of shots in the amusement general.
