Mexico vs Iceland – Friendlies Prediction
At one of several friendly international games this Saturday, held in neutral ground in the USA, in the city of Santa Clara (California), at Levi’s Stadium
They face the Mexican team, led by Juan Carlos Osório, and the team of Iceland, led by Heimir Hallgrimsson, with the teams facing the second time in space of about a year, after the clash in February 2017, when the Mexicans triumphed 1-0 in a friendly meeting.
Mexico
The Central American team enters this preparation game after a campaign almost untouchable in terms of their qualification for the World Cup in Russia, although it is also true that it did not face in front opponents of enormous value, taking either case, finishing in 1st place in his qualifying zone.
In terms of results, it comes from an alternating phase, adding three wins, a draw and a loss in its last five matches, conceding goals in three of those games played.
Iceland
As for the European team, it continues its dream campaign of the last years, with the current selector to give an excellent follow-up to the excellent work of Lagerback in the technical command of the Icelandic formation, managing to find out in an easier way than it would be suppose, I think.
The team comes from a good moment of results equally, losing only one game of the last seven that realized, being that it has won five of those same seven games.
Prediction Mexico vs Iceland:
With two teams that seem to me to be consistent from the defensive point of view and who should use these friendly ones, like most of the selections, to test and train the game, I see this encounter to finish with few goals and to be rich especially in the point of a more tactical view.
Prediction Today: At least 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.43
