Preview: Wales vs. Iceland

Wales vs. Iceland

Wales will be looking for only their second win in eight matches on Wednesday when they welcome Iceland to the Cardiff City for an international friendly.

Chris Coleman's side, who have drawn their previous two games, last tasted victory on October 11 with a 1-0 triumph over Macedonia during their unsuccessful World Cup qualifying campaign.

Meanwhile, Iceland can end a winless run of four games if they come out on top in the Welsh capital.

Wales and Iceland have met once before, with the Dragons earning a 1-0 victory back in 2008.

The hosts will be without the injured Aaron Ramsey, but Real Madrid winger Gareth Bale is in the squad. Elsewhere, Manchester City midfielder Emyr Huws could receive his first senior cap.
