Line-ups revealed as Wales aim to win group


Wales host Iceland looking for a win that could yet see them win their group and gain promotion in the Nations League.

They need results elsewhere to go in their favour but a draw will be enough to secure a playoff place.

Manager Craig Bellamy will be hoping the likes of Harry Wilson and Brennan Johnson come good in Cardiff – here’s who has been selected.

Wales line-up

Neco Williams, Joe Rodon and Ben Davies have played every minute under Bellamy so far and all three again start in defence. There is plenty of pace up top with Johnson and Daniel James either side of Oxford striker Mark Harris.

Fulham’s in-form attacker Wilson has five goals and two assists for Wales in the Nations League.

Wales XI: Danny Ward, Ben Davies, Ben Cabango, Joe Rodon, Neco Williams, Josh Sheehan, Harry Wilson, Daniel James, Liam Cullen, Brennan Johnson, Mark Harris

Iceland line-up

Goalkeeper Hákon Valdimarsson is on Brentford’s books while defenders Alfons Sampsted and Victor Pálsson play for Football League sides Birmingham and Plymouth.

Orri Óskarsson leads the line in attack – he plays his football in Spain for Real Sociedad.

Iceland XI: Hákon Valdimarsson, Alfons Sampsted, Victor Pálsson, Sverrir Ingason, Valgeir Lunddal Fridriksson, Jón Thorsteinsson, Arnór Ingvi Traustason, Ísak Bergmann Jóhannesson, Jóhann Gudmundsson, Andri Gudjohnsen, Orri Óskarsson
