The Player - Þórarinn Ingi Valdimarsson

Það er mikilvægt að ná góðum úrslitum eins og í öllum leikjum. Við voru ekki góðir í leiknum á móti Norðmönnum en vil viljum bæta fyrir það í þessum leik. Það er enginn beygur í okkur þótt við séu að mæta Englandi. Við verðum bara að taka vel á þeim og spila okkar bolta.

(“It is important to achieve good results, as in all games. We were not good at the game against Norway but I want to make up for it in this game. There is no turning us if we are to meet England. We just have to take good care of them and play our ball.”)

The Manager - Stuart Pierce

“Iceland have done extremely well in recent years and their form at Under-21 level is certainly improving.”

“I think they are well organised and have got some extremely talented players and a really good work ethic, collectively as a team. I have seen them on DVD and I see these attributes again and again from them.”

Akureyri's Prediction: 1-3 The young Ísland team will finally run out of luck and England will return home with a win. Although the visitors will have to work very hard. This is not saying that I want the right team to win, it is my head talking.

Tough game as I know Iceland did well in the last set of qualifiers. However, there are some exciting youngsters coming through in the England squad that will be keen to impress Capello, unfortunately Pearce does not seem to be able to get the best out of them.

Do you have a prediction geitungur akureyrar?
