Netherlands - Iceland. Predicted line-ups and latest news


On 10 June, the Netherlands and Iceland will play a friendly match at the De Cape Stadium in Rotterdam.
Both teams are approaching the face-to-face meeting in good spirits, as they won their first matches in June. Last Thursday, the Netherlands defeated Canada 4-0, while the Icelanders silenced Wembley in London a day later with a 1-0 win over England.
However, the teams have slightly different objectives. The Netherlands will finish their preparations for Euro 2024 with this match, while the Icelandic players will go home after the game in Rotterdam and next time they will gather for the Nations League matches in September.
Netherlands head coach Ronald Koeman may make changes to the squad that played against Canada last match: Nathan Ake, Denzel Dumfries and Virgil van Dijk should appear in defence.
Frankie de Jong's participation remains uncertain as he missed the end of last season due to an ankle injury, but a place in central midfield against Iceland should be found for Teun Koopmeiners.
Memphis Depay is the team's top scorer with 45 goals, and the forward could join Cody Gakpo in the offensive line. Koeman is expected to give some playing time to Javi Simons, who spent the match against Canada on the bench.
As for Iceland, head coach Oge Hareide may decide to field the same line-up as in the England match, as there were no problems with their kit before that game.
Thorsteinsson scored the winning goal in the game against the Three Lions, and he should again support Andri Gudjohnsen.
Johann Berg Gudmundson and Ajax's young star Christian Hlinsson, who did not play in the match against England, may also play.
