            Norway vs Scotland Prediction, Tips & Stats

            Norway and Scotland will meet at the Ullevaal Stadion this Saturday with the Scots looking to stay top of Group A after a sensational start to the Euro 2024 qualifiers just as Norway sit down in fourth.

            Scotland managed to stun Spain 2-0 at Hampden Park in their recent game that saw Scott McTominay bag a brace with a goal in either half. It was one of the best results of the century for Scotland, and after also beating Cyprus 3-0, they now sit top of the table - McTominay also bagged two goals in that game.

            The biggest news coming into this game is that Erling Haaland likely misses out for Norway after scoring 52 times in 53 games during Manchester City's treble triumph. The potential Ballon d'Or winner played 90 minutes just last Saturday in the Champions League final against Inter Milan and although he is with the squad, he is unlikely to start.

            Manager Ståle Solbakken may have no choice but to start Haaland, however, after failing to win their first two games in Group A. Norway first lost 3-0 away to Spain in a comfortable victory for the 2012 Euro winners, as Solbakken's side went on to draw 1-1 with Georgia after Alexander Sortloth's first half goals was cancelled out by a second-half equaliser.

            Norway have now not won a game since defeating Sweden on matchday four of the Nations League after also losing to Slovenia and Serbia in their final two games of the Nations League.

            Norway team news

            Erling Haaland is with the squad but is not expected to start with the Champions League final coming just six days ago where he played 90 minutes. Instead, Alexander Sorloth will likely lead the line in search of his 17th goal. Martin Ødegaard will captain his side with just two goals under his belt for Norway, as Mohamed Elyounoussi, Sander Berge and Ola Solbakken all likely play. Ørjan Nyland of RB Leipzig will start in goal once again for Noway with Birger Meling set to play in defence alongside Brentford's Kristoffer Ajer and Napoli's Leo Skiri Østigård. Dortmund's Julian Ryerson likely starts once more, but a sensational season from Marcus Holmgren Pedersen for Feyenoord is likely going to put him in the starting XI.

            Scotland team news

            Angus Gunn should start in goal for Scotland and get just his second cap with the absence of Craig Gordon and Jon McLaughlin. Grant Hanley and Anthony Ralston have also not made the squad and will be missed at the back, while Scott McKenna is out injured with David Turnbull. Che Adams is also out with an injury and Ryan Fraser hasn't made the squad after not playing for Newcastle at all this season. Lyndon Dykes and Ryan Christie likely start up top with Callum McGregor and John McGinn in midfield. Lewis Ferguson of Bologna should also get some minutes alongside billy Gilmour.
