Switzerland Women vs Iceland Women Tips, Predictions and Bet Builder

Women's Euro hosts Switzerland let slip a 1-0 half-time lead in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Norway and they cannot afford another slip-up against Group A rivals Iceland on Sunday.

Iceland were beaten 1-0 by Finland in the opening game of the tournament so both teams are under pressure coming into their matchday-two contest in Bern.

Switzerland Women vs Iceland Women Prediction

Best Bet: Geraldine Reuteler to be first goalscorer @ 13/2

Swiss striker Geraldine Reuteler had a superb Bundesliga season for Eintracht Frankfurt, scoring 10 goals in 20 starts and she looked lively in the first half of Wednesday's defeat to Norway.

Reuteler was denied by the woodwork and should have done better with a chance in the second half, but she looks a good bet to open the scoring against Iceland.

She scored in the second minute of April's 3-3 Nations League draw between these teams and poses a major threat to the Icelandic defence.

James Milton explains:

Geraldine Reuteler had an eventful game against Iceland in April, ending up with a goal, an assist and a red card for two bookable offences, while she looked a real menace on matchday one.

Switzerland Women vs Iceland Women Bet Builder Tip

• Switzerland Women to win

• Nadine Riesen 1+ shot on target

• Over 3.5 goals 

  Pays 7/1

Switzerland Women failed to build on a bright start to their game against Norway, but they can reward the home fans with three points on matchday two.

Swiss wing-back Nadine Riesen got forward to great effect on Wednesday, scoring the opening goal and winning a penalty that was overturned by the VAR. She should be backed to have at least one shot on target against Iceland.

A draw is not a great result for either team, so an open contest is expected. Over 3.5 goals is worth adding to the Bet Builder as the most recent meeting between these sides finished 3-3.

James Milton adds:

Eintracht Frankfurt's Nadine Riesen was hugely impressive for Switzerland against Norway and she can help her side claim an entertaining victory over Iceland.

Tactics, Form and Team News

Switzerland Women's manager Pia Sundhage is unlikely to panic after the defeat to Norway and she could name an unchanged starting XI.

Arsenal's Lia Walti, a fitness doubt in the build-up to the tournament, played the full 90 minutes on Wednesday.

Switzerland had seven shots on target to Norway's three so the absence of veteran Swiss striker Ramona Bachmann was keenly felt.

Bachmann, who has scored 60 goals in 153 appearances at international level, was ruled out of the tournament last month after rupturing her ACL in training.

Expected Switzerland Women line-up (5-3-2): Peng; Beney, Calligaris, Stierli, Maritz, Riesen; Ivelj, Walti, Vallotto; Reuteler, Xhemaili.

Midfielder Hildur Antonsdottir is suspended following her red card for a second bookable offence against Finland and Iceland could also be without captain Glodis Viggosdottir.

The Bayern Munich centre-back came off at half-time on matchday one due to illness and is a doubt for Sunday's game, so Saedis Heidarsdottir could start in defence.

Viggosdottir's absence would be a big blow to an Iceland side who pride themselves on their defensive solidity.

They qualified automatically from Group A4, beating Germany 3-0 in Reykjavik, but their only win in 12 matches since the qualifying campaign was last month's 3-1 friendly victory over Serbia.

Expected Iceland Women line-up (4-4-1-1): Runarsdottir; Guony Arnadottir, Sigurdardottir, Heidarsdottir, Guorun Arnadottir; Eiriksdottir, Albertsdottir, Johannsdottir, Jonsdottir; Vilhjalmsdottir; Jessen.
