Spain vs Norway Betting Analysis
Spain host Norway at the Estadio La Rosaleda in Malaga on Saturday in a game that pits the two favorites for Group A against each other in the opening game.
After their Round of 16 exit in the World Cup to surprise package Morocco last year, Luis Enrique has since stepped down in charge of the Spanish national team and has been replaced by Luis de la Fuente, who recently guided the Spanish Olympic team to a silver medal in the Tokyo Olympics.
Norway, who missed out on the recent World Cup due to finishing 3rd in their qualifying group behind the Netherlands and Turkey, have struggled in international competition of late, winning just one of their last four Nations League games overall.
Norway have lost just two of their last five head-to-heads against Spain overall, including notching a 1-0 victory here back in 2000. However, both of the last two meetings in Spain were won by the home side by exact 2-1 margins also.
Haaland Huge Loss For Lions
The Norweigan Lions will be traveling to Spain without their talismanic striker on Saturday Erling Haaland, and his injury represents a huge blow to Stale Solbakken’s team’s chances ahead of this one.
The 22-year-old striker has already netted 21 goals in just 23 games for his country as he sets his sights on surpassing current Norweigan record holder Jorgen Juve who scored 33 goals in 45 appearances for his country.
Lack Of Harmony In Spanish Camp
With Barcelona’s fiery 2-1 El Classico win over Real Madrid at the weekend, a game which saw seven cards get dished out as well, it hasn’t set up the greatest training camp atmosphere for new manager Luis de la Fuente to deal with.
No doubt the Spanish coach has had plenty of experience prior to this managing the national team youth squads, but with recent training pictures emerging of the Real Madrid and Barcelona players refusing to mix on the pitch together, it hasn’t set up the best atmosphere for a tough European campaign ahead.
Spain vs Norway Expert Prediction
Even with potential disharmony in the Spanish ranks, Norway will know the monumental task awaiting them here on Saturday without their star striker, so Stale Solbakken’s side will very likely sit deep and look to grind out a result against the Spanish in this one.
While Spain do have attacking players abound in their squad, outside of a 7-0 thrashing of Costa Rica in the World Cup, Spain have averaged just 1.11 goals per game across their other nine competitive matchups, and face a Norwegian side in this one that have lost just three of their last ten international away games overall.
Take the Under 2.5 goals on Saturday in the Euro 2024 qualification matchup between Norway and Spain in Malaga.
Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals Scored (-105)
