vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

The UEFA Nations League restarts with the table still at zero, so we look at the two sides' recent form instead. Norway arrive from the World Cup with a 1-2 home defeat to England in their most recent game, but the overall run has been solid: before that loss a 2-1 win away to Brazil, another 2-1 win away to Ivory Coast, a 1-4 defeat to France and, further back, two wins, 3-2 over Senegal and 4-1 away to Iraq. Denmark instead come off a 2-1 friendly win over Ukraine. Before that win a 0-0 draw away to Congo DR, another 1-1 draw away to Czechia in World Cup qualifying, a big 4-0 win over North Macedonia and, further back, a 2-4 defeat away to Scotland and a 2-2 draw with Belarus. In the two head to head meetings Denmark have always won or at least not lost: in June 2024 they won 3-1 at home, while the score from the 2020 meeting is not available. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
