Scotland v Iceland takes place on Friday, 6th of June, 2025 at Hampden Park in Glasgow. Kick-off is set for 19:45 BST (20:45 CEST in Italy, Germany, France and Spain). This friendly fixture forms part of their summer World Friendlies programme.

How are both teams coming into this?
Scotland enter the match with confidence after goalkeeper Angus Gunn was spotted in fine form during training sessions ahead of these friendlies. Managerial comments suggest a mix of seasoned internationals and promising youth talent will be fielded, aiming to build momentum ahead of competitive qualifiers later this year.
Iceland arrive looking to improve on their recent performances in friendlies and Nations League play. Although they haven’t named their squad publicly yet, expectations are that they’ll rotate heavily, giving opportunities to fringe players eager to stake a claim for future competitive fixtures.
Our forecast
At home, Scotland are slight favourites and should control large periods of the match, but these friendlies often throw up surprises. We expect a bright start from the hosts, with Iceland sitting deeper and looking to hit on the counter.
Our tip is a Scotland win, but with rotation in both sides, goals could be at a premium. A betting angle on under 3.5 goals looks appealing, with Scotland to edge a 2-0 or 1-0 victory.
