Wales face a crucial Nations League game this weekend as they take on Norway, hoping to avoid relegation to League B.
Norway enter this game with three points from four games. It's been a tough campaign for the Nordic side who have recorded one win and three defeats. Their win came against Denmark by a 3-2 scoreline, while they've lost twice to Portugal and once to Wales.
Their defeat to Wales will have disappointed them immensely, and they'll be looking to set the record straight here. Given they're ranked 20 places above the Welsh, they'll expect themselves to do that.
Their last five games have been very eventful, with each of them seeing both over 2.5 goals and BTTS occur. Four of those five games ended in 2-1 scorelines, with the outlier being the aforementioned Denmark game.
Norway will always feel confident heading into games with Erling Haaland leading the line, with the striker's goal record for his country currently at a jaw-dropping 65 goals in 59 caps.
Wales, meanwhile, will be hoping to avoid defeat here and give themselves the best possible chance of avoiding relegation. Like Norway, they also sit on three points, but their final game of the campaign is against Portugal so they'll know they likely need to get something from this one to avoid finishing bottom of the group.
Wales' results have seen them lose once to Portugal and twice to Denmark, so their inferior head-to-head record against the Danes means they cannot finish above them if the two sides are level on points at the end of the campaign.
Craig Bellamy's side do tend to struggle on the road, having only beaten Liechtenstein, Kazakhstan, Montenegro and Latvia away from home in the last four years.
They have a full squad heading into this one so they'll fancy themselves to be competitive, but we think Norway will avenge last month's defeat.
Norway 2-1 Wales
