Get ready for some expert football tips, best bets, and predictions for Friday’s Nations League matches. Nations League predictions are here.

According to a football betting journalist, both teams were eliminated in the round of 16 at Euro 2024. Slovenia may have reached their expected level, but Austria felt a bit unfulfilled with their performance. Ralf Rangnick’s attack-minded squad managed to top Group D, beating out powerhouses like France and the Netherlands. However, they fell short in a 2-1 defeat to Turkey in the knockout stages. Despite this setback, Austria is expected to bounce back with a win against Slovenia, whom they have beaten in their last three encounters.

Iceland, on the other hand, has seen some tough times since their impressive run to the quarter-finals at Euro 2016. Nevertheless, they secured a 1-0 victory over England in a recent friendly at Wembley, and they are favored to beat Montenegro in Reykjavik. Iceland seems to be building towards another strong era, narrowly missing out on Euro 2024 following a playoff loss to Ukraine. With four wins in six matches this year, including the victory over England, Iceland is confident in their ability to overcome Montenegro, who only managed three wins out of eight during their failed Euro 2024 qualifying campaign.
