Slovenia vs Norway Team Previews, Form and Standout Players

It is all to play for in League B Group Three. The top three teams all share the same amount of points - including both Norway and Slovenia - heading into this game. This will be a close fixture with both teams keen for victory.

Slovenia Preview

Slovenia Predicted Lineup - Jan Oblak; Jue Balkovec, Jaka Bijol, Vanja Drkusic, Erik Janza; Jan Mlakar, Timi Max Elsnik, Adam Gnezda Cerin, Petar Stojanovic; Andraz Sporar, Benjamin Sesko

Slovenia as it stands sit third place on seven points from four games. However they are only in third due to the head to heads. This having picked up the same amount of points as the two teams above them. A win in this game will be huge.

Five goals scored is far from the most amazing statistic for them. They don’t score a lot of goals. However they make up for that with the fact that they have only conceded four. They are very good at keeping teams out. But can they do the same against Norway?

Norway Preview

Norway Predicted Lineup - Egil Selvik; Marcus Holmgren Pedersen, Stian Rode Gregersen, Leo Skiri Ostigard, Julian Ryerson; Sander Berge, Morten Thorsby, Patrick Berg; Antonio Nusa, Alexander Sorloth; Erling Haaland

Norway also have picked up seven points in the group so far. However they sit top as it stands. Once again a win will be a huge opportunity to pull away from the rest.

Norway have conceded six goals so far in the Nations League. Nothing to shout home about that’s for sure. However they have also scored six. And with Erling Haaland in their squad - who has 15 goals in 16 games for Manchester City so far this season - they will be keen to score more.

But can he be a difference maker for his country once again as he so often is for his club?

Head To Head Stats: Slovenia vs Norway

This is set to be the 13th game between Slovenia and Norway.

Norway hold the advantage in this fixture with seven of those games ending in Norwegian victory. Slovenia on the other hand have won just two. There have also been three draws in that time.
