⚽ Football Bet of the Day
Norway vs Moldova
Linus Bergström; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Both Teams to Score: No | |
7/10 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Cruzeiro hold a two-goal first-leg lead, defend superbly and expertly manage second halves. Atletico Mineiro, winless in three and goalless throughout, arrive under a new coach likely to value stability. This derby rarely opens up—six straight meetings were one-sided on the scoreboard. | |

- Norway have scored 13 goals in four qualifiers, conceding only two.
- Moldova have lost all four group games, conceding 14 and scoring just twice.

Rationale:
Norway’s long wait to reach a major tournament could finally be coming to an end, and the evidence is stacking up in their favour. Ståle Solbakken’s men have made a flawless start to their World Cup qualifying campaign, winning all four of their fixtures so far. Not only are the results convincing, but the manner of their performances has also been authoritative, with 13 goals scored and just two conceded across those matches. Erling Haaland remains the spearhead of their attack, but it is not a one-man show. Martin Ødegaard’s creativity has knitted the team together, while Andreas Schjelderup’s emergence on the wing provides an additional outlet.
By contrast, Moldova have endured a miserable run, losing all four of their qualifiers and conceding 14 in the process. Their inability to keep sides at bay is stark, particularly as three of those four games have ended without them scoring a goal themselves. The reverse fixture highlighted the gulf in class, with Norway dismantling them 5-0 away from home. Moldova’s broader struggles against Scandinavian teams are well documented, including an 8-0 drubbing against Denmark in 2021.
This fixture looks heavily tilted in the hosts’ favour, and the best way into the market is through goals. Norway’s attacking depth ensures that they can keep creating opportunities even if Haaland is closely marked. Ødegaard’s passing range and the wide play from Schjelderup and Oscar Bobb should allow sustained pressure throughout the contest. Moldova will almost certainly adopt a defensive stance, but their past record suggests they will struggle to resist for long.
With the evidence from both teams’ campaigns, Norway scoring three or more looks a strong proposition. Their mix of star quality and current form makes a comfortable home win with multiple goals the standout play of the evening.d; occasional missteps are likely. Israel, chasing a landmark finals berth, will accept risk to maintain their cushion in second. Pressure often means a goal conceded as well as a goal scored.
