Preview

Match preview

Wales host Norway in League A of the UEFA Nations League looking to halt a difficult start to their group campaign. The hosts suffered back-to-back away defeats in September, falling 1-0 to Portugal and 2-0 to Denmark without finding the net in either fixture. Across all competitions, Wales are winless in their last five outings.

Norway arrive with three points from their opening two group fixtures following an entertaining 3-2 victory over Denmark and a narrow 2-1 defeat against Portugal. With key contributors E. Haaland scoring three goals and M. Ødegaard providing two assists, the visitors have demonstrated consistent firepower in the final third.

With Wales struggling for goals and Norway showing sharp attacking edge despite their defensive concessions, the visitors appear well positioned to take something from this encounter.

Norway or Draw

74%

Confidence

Norway have demonstrated superior attacking output in League A, scoring four goals across two fixtures against Denmark and Portugal. Key figures E. Haaland and M. Ødegaard have been directly involved in all of those goals. In contrast, Wales have failed to score in both group fixtures, losing 1-0 to Portugal and 2-0 to Denmark, extending a five-match winless sequence. Backing Norway to either win or draw provides solid coverage against a Welsh side struggling for attacking penetration.
