Wales will be hoping to continue an encouraging start to life under Craig Bellamy as they take on Iceland in the Nations League.

An impressive performance in a draw against Turkey was followed up by a good away win in Montenegro in the first two fixtures under former Wales captain Bellamy, who succeeded Rob Page at the helm in July.

It leaves the visitors a point ahead of their opponents in Group B4, though this will be a demanding trip.

Freezing temperatures will greet the Welsh squad in Reykjavik, while Iceland showed their quality in beating England at Wembley earlier this year.
