The Ukrainian national football team will play another 2026 World Cup qualifying match on Friday, October 10. Serhiy Rebrov’s team will play one of the most crucial qualifying matches, against Iceland.

The match will be available to watch on the Megogo video service with the “Optimal,” “Sport,” “Maximum,” and “MEGOPACK N+S” subscriptions, as well as free live on the Megogo SPORT channel on T2 and cable networks. The broadcast will also appear on the “Megogo Football First” channel and in a separate pop-up “Television” section on the day of the game.
Bookmakers consider our team the favorites in this matchup. Bets on a Ukrainian victory are accepted at odds of 2.37. A draw is priced at 3.10. Iceland’s odds for a win are as high as 2.90.
The match will be officiated by a team of German referees led by Sven Jablonski. He will be assisted by linesmen Eduard Beitinger and Lasse Koslovski. Florian Badstübner will serve as the fourth official.
The video assistant referee (VAR) system will also be in use at the game, with Benjamin Brand overseeing its operation.
Iceland: Valdimarsson – Paulsson, Ingason, Gretarsson, Ellertsson – Teitur Thordarson, Johannesson, Arnar Haraldsson – Gudmundsson, Andri Gudjohnsen, Daniel Gudjohnsen.
Ukraine: Trubin – Konoplya, Zabarnyi, Matvienko, Mykolenko – Kalyuzhnyi, Malinovsky – Gutsulyak, Bondarenko, Sudakov – Vanat.
The teams have met five times. The “blue-and-yellows” have two wins and one loss. However, our team’s only victory in Reykjavik was way back in 1999, when they won the Euro qualifier thanks to a penalty kick by current coach Serhiy Rebrov.
Ukraine had a disastrous start to the qualifying campaign, taking just one point from their opening two matches. Iceland, meanwhile, had a win over Azerbaijan.
