🇳🇴 Norway – Aiming for Dominance

Norway have developed into a more consistent side in recent years, driven by their golden generation of talent. Playing at home, they are expected to dictate proceedings, pressing high and using their attacking firepower to overwhelm Moldova. For Norway, anything less than victory would be seen as a major setback.

Key Players:

• Erling Haaland – World-class striker, lethal in front of goal and Norway’s biggest weapon.

• Martin Ødegaard – Captain and creative leader, orchestrating play from midfield.

• Alexander Sørloth – Physical forward who adds depth to Norway’s attack.

Tactics: Likely to line up in a 4-3-3, with Ødegaard controlling the tempo and Haaland spearheading the attack. Norway will look to exploit Moldova’s defensive gaps early.

🇲🇩 Moldova – Hoping to Resist

Moldova know they are heavy underdogs, but they have shown moments of resilience in recent qualifiers. Their best chance lies in sitting deep, staying organized, and looking to capitalize on counterattacks or set-pieces. Discipline will be key if they are to contain Norway’s star-studded lineup.

Key Players:

• Ion Nicolaescu – Moldova’s main attacking outlet, capable of clinical finishing.

• Artur Ioniță – Experienced midfielder, vital for both defensive cover and transitions.

• Stanislav Namasco – Veteran goalkeeper who could be busy throughout the game.

Tactics: Moldova are expected to adopt a 5-4-1, focusing on defending in numbers and relying on rare counterattacks through Nicolaescu.
