Iceland take on Hungary in their second Euro 2016 game on Saturday at the Stade Velodrome in Marseille. While Hungary are coming into the game at the back of a 2-0 win against Austria, Iceland enter the game at the back of a 1-1 draw against Portugal.
In a total of 10 meetings, Iceland have won thrice while Hungary have bagged seven victories. Going into the game, the momentum is expected to be with Hungary as it was not an easy task to defeat Austria, ranked No. 10 in the world, in their very first game of the campaign.
"We still have the euphoria of the first game in our system, which we will take into the second game and we'll see what happens. We want to put on a good performance, with the supporters right behind us," Hungary coach Bernd Storck told UEFA website.
"Our strategy will be a little bit different to how it was against Austria. Iceland are a different team, they play very physically, they are very disciplined, and they play a different tactical style. They have a lot of internationally experienced players and a very, very good team spirit," he added.
Iceland, the smallest nation ever to have appeared at any major final tournament, are definitely the underdogs going into the game but they are not expected to back down from the fight.
"Hungary are a good team. I've been impressed with them. I think they have taken a step forward [in the finals]. They're well organised and work hard, so I expect a really, really tough game," said Iceland joint coach Lars Lagerback. "We have two matches coming up and we're going for three points in both. We want first of all to qualify, but also to have as good a position as possible in the group. So we'll definitely go for a win."
