Norway Preview

Norway enter ranked No. 31 in FIFA’s 11 June 2026 ranking. Their listed recent form is W W W D W, with 13 goals scored and 5 conceded across the current public sample. Norway beat Iraq 4-1, so Solbakken can build around Haaland’s immediate World Cup impact.

Norway can control the game if Odegaard receives cleanly behind Senegal’s midfield. Haaland gives the side the most direct scoring route, while Nusa and Bobb can attack wide channels. The key risk is leaving space behind the full-backs against Mane and Sarr.

Norway Current Form and Key Players

Erling Haaland is Norway’s key player because his box movement, finishing, and aerial pressure can decide tight matches. Odegaard, Berge, Ryerson, and Nusa give the team balance around him. Norway need Haaland attacking early crosses, Odegaard finding pockets between lines, and Berge protecting transitions after set pieces.

Senegal can challenge Norway if Gueye and Camara block the passes into Odegaard. Mane gives the side a direct outlet, while Jackson and Sarr can stretch Norway on counters. Koulibaly must manage Haaland without allowing second balls to drop around the box.

Senegal Current Form and Key Players

Sadio Mane gives Senegal their main wide running, penalty-box timing, and transition threat route. Koulibaly, Gueye, Camara, and Sarr need clean games around him. Senegal need Mane to attack the weak side, Gueye and Camara to slow Odegaard, and Koulibaly to control Norway’s direct balls.
