    Noswaith dda! Wales host Iceland at a chilly Cardiff City Stadium tonight in a match they must win to have a chance of staying in the top tier of the Nations League.

    With Denmark and Germany fighting it out at the top of Group A3, it’s a shootout between Wales and Iceland to avoid automatic relegation.

    Wales are bottom at the moment, three points behind Iceland, who won 1-0 when the teams met in September.

    If Wales win by two goals tonight, they will overtake Iceland in the table and will then need to match Iceland’s result in the final round of matches on Tuesday to finish third.

    Got it? Good. Now let’s have a look at the teams.
