Player to watch: Harry Wilson
Harry Wilson was on the scoresheet in Wales' 2-2 draw against Iceland last weekend. The Fulham player has three direct goal involvements in his last two Nations League assignments after registering a goal and an assist in the reverse fixture of this clash. It will be interesting to see if Wilson will extend his scoring run in international matches to three games.
