Ukraine - Iceland: Form Analysis
Sergei Rebrov's Ukrainian team comes into this Playoff Final in excellent form. They have lost just one of their last ten games, a 2-1 defeat to Italy in Rome, winning six of those matches and drawing three (against Germany, England and Italy). Since that Italy defeat, they have won four of the last five, including the dramatic come-from-behind win over Bosnia-Herzegovina on Thursday night, which saw them score twice in the final few minutes of the game to secure the win. They also have also scored two or more goals in four of their last five, only failing to do so in their 0-0 draw with Italy in their final Euro 2024 Qualifying Group game.
Iceland made a mockery of their FIFA ranking (73) when defeating Israel 4-1 in their Euro 2024 Playoff Semi Final. They now face a stiffer test though against the 24th ranked Ukraine in this Path B final. Aga Hareide's team finished a disappointing 4th in Group J in qualifying, losing their last two games, but have won the three games they have faced since, all away from home. They have scored seven goals in those games, conceding just one, a penalty to Israel in the game last week. Prior to those three recent wins, Iceland had lost six of their last ten, winning three and drawing the other. There have been 41 goals scored in the last 13 games Iceland have played, which suggests goals should be on the cards in Tuesday's win-and-in Playoff Final.

Ukraine & Iceland Squad Analysis
Ukraine's biggest absentee for this fixture is their second most capped player Andriy Yarmolenko (116 caps, 46 goals), who is injured for this game. The same is true for Inter Miami defender Sehiy Kryvtsov. Manager Sergei Rebrov still has a very experienced squad to pick from for the game with Iceland which includes the likes of Premier League stars Oleksandr Zinchenko (Arsenal), Mykhailo Mudryk (Chelsea), Vitaly Mykolenko (Everton) and Illya Zabarnyi (Bournemouth). A couple of players to watch include midfielder Heorhiy Sudakov, who has been on the radar of many top European clubs for a while now and in-form Girona striker Artem Dovbyk, who grabbed the winner against Bosnia-Herzegovina in the semi-final.
Iceland should also have a strong squad to pick from for this crucial playoff fixture. Defender Horour Magnusson remains injured with an ACL injury that will keep him out of the finals while Gylfi Sigurdsson and Saevar Atli Magnusson are two others ruled out through injury. Veterans Birkir Bjarnason and Aron Gunnarsson were not selected in this squad and neither, surprisingly, was Iceland's most experienced keeper Runar Runarsson, who last featured for the team against Portugal back in November. This young squad features just eight players aged over the age of 27 and much will rely on Genoa striker Albert Gudmondsson who hit a hat-trick in the win over Israel.
