Iceland vs. Croatia 15.11.2013 World Cup play off

 Iceland are a surprise package in the 2014 World Cup play offs and they have home advantage in the first leg of their match up with Croatia on Friday night.

Iceland Update
Iceland finished as runners up to Switzerland in qualifying Group E. The Swiss were unbeaten in the group and finished seven points clear of Iceland who will nonetheless have been very satisfied to beat the likes of Norway and Slovenia to the play off spot. They did lose two of their qualifiers at home, 2-0 to the Swiss and 4-2 to Slovenia but after going down in Cyprus early in the campaign, wins in Slovenia and Albania and draws in Norway and Switzerland (4-4) helped them to second place. Iceland kept two clean sheets in ten qualifiers, 2-0 home wins over Norway and Cyprus.

Croatia Update
Croatia were running neck and neck with Belgium after six rounds of qualifiers but they finished their group in poor form, taking just one point from their last four games including defeats to Scotland home and away. They did win away from home at Kazakhstan, Macedonia and Wales (all by a 2-1 scoreline) and they drew in Belgium before their form and ultimately their chances of automatic qualification disintegrated. Both sides scored in five of their six away fixtures with a 2-0 defeat in Scotland, in what was essentially a dead rubber, bucking the trend.

Head to Head
These teams haven't met wince the World Cup 2006 qualifying campaign and Croatia won both meetings, 4-0 on home soil and 3-1 in Iceland.
