Martina Voss-Tecklenburg's Switzerland side achieved their first win ahead of their game against France.
Iceland, meanwhile, will be looking to Wednesday's match against Austria for three points, having failed to hold onto a first-half lead.
Lara Dickenmann and Ramona Bachmann hit back after Fanndis Fridriksdottir scored on the break to put Iceland ahead.
The win was Switzerland's first ever victory at a European finals, and Iceland may be out of the tournament depending on the result of France and Austria.
