Latest football match prediction: Norway vs Slovenia
Norway are competing in League B for the third consecutive time in the Nations League, after failing to secure promotion in the 2022-23 season. Stale Solbakken's side have a record of three wins, one draw and two losses in six matches, three points behind leaders Serbia. They started the current season with a goalless draw against Kazakhstan, but secured a narrow 2-1 victory against Austria, thanks to Erling Haaland's 32nd international goal after Felix Myhre opened the scoring and Marcel Sabitzer equalized.
After securing three points in their last match, Norway will be looking to record two consecutive wins for the first time since September/October 2023. The home side have an impressive home record with seven wins in their last 10 Nations League matches (one draw, two losses).
Slovenia are competing in League B for the second consecutive season, after finishing third in their group in the 2022-23 Nations League. They had a record of one win, three draws, and two losses, finishing two points above the relegation zone and seven points behind promotion. With four points from their first two Nations League matches, Matjaz Kek's side are just two points away from equaling their six-point total from the 2023-24 edition. They drew 1-1 with Austria before securing a comfortable 3-0 victory over Kazakhstan thanks to a hat-trick from Benjamin Sesko.
Slovenia will begin their away campaign after two home games, hoping to end a four-match winless run away from home in the Nations League (3 draws, 1 loss). The visitors will find momentum in their unbeaten run against Norway in their last three encounters, including a 2-1 victory in their most recent meeting in September 2022. Both teams possess strong attacking players such as Sorloth, Haaland, and Sesko. With all this, the match promises to be high-scoring, but could end in a draw in a hard-fought contest.
