Norway Malta betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Norway sees in this match a great opportunity to add the three points, so they should go after attacking moves, so they can score a goal early in the match. The visitors should score hard and at the same time explore the empty spaces to surprise in the counterattacks. The tendency is that we have a busy game for both sides. We will bet that no more than 2.5 goals will occur until the end of the 90 minutes.

Preview
Norway and Malta meet at Ullevaal Stadion, in a match for this stage of the EC Qualification (Qualifying Round). The only recent head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 10‑10‑2015, and ended in a (2‑0) win by Norway. Norway registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Norway

After 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss, the home team is currently in the 4th position, with 5 points won. In the last match, they have won (0‑2) in an away match against Faroe Islands, after in the previous round they have tied (2‑2) at home against Romania. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 1 draw and 9 losses in away matches; against 9 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses at their stadium. In the last 8 home matches Norway has won 6 and tied 2. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 3 of the last 4 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in all of the last 4 matches for this competition. Goals have been frequent in their home matches, as 4 of the last 8 have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 5 out of 8 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 15 matches, and have only turned the score around in 1.

Norway is trying to climb the leaderboard of its group, so it is important to go for the three points this round. In need of a good result, the Norway team should go all out, thus looking for victory from the early minutes. In the last round, Norway was defeated away from home by the Faroe Islands by 2-0. The coach should go to the field with full force for this confrontation.

Confirmed Lineup: Rune Jarstein, Omar Elabdellaoui, Haitam Aleesami, Even Hovland, Håvard Nordtveit, Ole Selnaes, Stefan Johansen, Martin Ødegaard, Sander Berge, Erling Haaland, Joshua King.
Coach: S. Solbakken.

Analysis Malta

The away team is currently in the 5th position, with 3 points won, after 1 win and 3 losses. In the penultimate round, they have lost an away match against Sweden by (3‑0). In the last round, they have lost a home match against Romania by (0‑4). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 3 draws and 11 losses in away matches, with 7 goals scored and 31 conceded; against 1 win, 4 draws and 10 losses at their stadium, with 7 goals scored and 34 conceded. In the last 8 away matches Malta has tied 2 and lost 6. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 4 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 3 of the last 4 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 7 of the last 8 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 3 of the last 15 matches, they have reached half‑time in front in 2 of those 3 matches and have held on to the lead in 1. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 12 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Malta has to perform well on the pitch, knowing how to mark hard the other team to close their opponents' spaces while looking for empty spaces to counter. Malta's goal is to seek at least one draw in this match, which will be much celebrated if it happens. In the last match played in the competition, the team was defeated by Romania by 4-0. The coach should go to the field with a competitive team.

Confirmed Lineup: Henry Bonello, Zach Muscat, Steve Borg, Andrei Agius, Kyrian Nwoko, Juan Corbalan, Dunstan Vella, Rowen Muscat, Jake Grech, Paul Fenech, Joseph Mbong.
