by Sridhar in UEFA Nations League Predictions
Iceland face an uphill task of overturning the first leg deficit as they host Kosovo at a neutral venue in the second leg of the UEFA Nations League B/C playoffs. This match on Sunday at Estadio Enrique Roca de Murcia comes with our prediction of Kosovo avoiding defeat. The winner of this tie will play in League B of the next Nations League cycle, while the loser will be in League C.
The first leg on Thursday saw Kosovo win 2-1 with goals in the 19th and 58th minutes, while Iceland scored a consolation in the 22nd minute. The tie is still in the balance, but Iceland need to win to at least take the match into extra time or further into penalties.
Iceland won just one of their six recent matches, losing four and drawing one, all in the Nations League. As they host at a neutral venue due to stadium construction, the challenge only gets bigger, as Iceland have historically lost six of ten Nations League home games.
That gives Kosovo a chance to earn promotion to League B, coming here with five wins from the last six games. The Dardanians have won two of their last three away matches in this competition as well and will quietly feel confident of their chances.

Our Iceland vs Kosovo Prediction
After a 2-1 defeat in the first leg, Iceland are up against it, as they aim to overturn the deficit against Kosovo. They will have to do it in a neutral venue, which adds to the burden. Their recent record in this competition isn’t any better, with the home team defeating only Montenegro across their last six matches. Kosovo will travel confidently and are likely to progress by avoiding defeat here, and don’t be surprised if they end up winners. That’s why our Iceland vs Kosovo prediction is draw or Kosovo wins.
