The United States will play home friendlies against Iceland on Jan. 31 and Canada on Feb. 5 as it prepares for World Cup qualifiers against Guatemala in March.
Both games will be at Carson, California, U.S. Soccer confirmed on Tuesday. ESPN FC's Doug McIntyre previously reported the plans for the friendlies last week.
Players on the national team and under-23 team will gather in Carson for a training camp starting Jan. 4. Because the games are not on FIFA fixture dates, the squad will be filled with mostly U.S.-based players.
The Americans play World Cup qualifiers against Guatemala on March 25 and 29, with the first match in Guatemala City and the second in Columbus, Ohio.
The under-23 team is preparing for a two-leg playoff against Colombia in March for a berth in the Olympics.
Iceland is ranked No. 36 by FIFA, four spots behind the 32nd-ranked U.S. In September, Iceland became the smallest nation to qualify for the European Championship. The islanders reached Euro 2016 at the expense of Netherlands, the third-placed team at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, that they beat twice en route to France.
Icelandic-American forward Aron Johannsson is not expected to be available to face the nation he represented at youth level. Johannsson is recovering from a hip injury, and Werder Bremen, his German Bundesliga team, begins the second half of its season on Jan. 24.
