Norway vs. Italy Preview and Betting Odds

As the UEFA Qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup progress, Norway and Italy face off in a pivotal Group I encounter.

The hosts for this upcoming match are currently leading the pack with a perfect run of two victories, scoring nine times and conceding only twice so far, so we believe they will give us a show against one of the most dangerous opponents in the group.

Italy, who have yet to play their first match in this Qualifier run, are ready to make their debut in the competition, taking on the team leading the board, so they’ll get to measure and have an idea of how things will be against the rest of the pack.

Norway vs. Italy Betting Odds and Info

Por que apostar na Noruega?

The Norwegians are on a big roll so far in their run on the World Cup Qualifiers, and it looks like they aim to keep their 100% record in Group I intact, but they will face a sleeping giant once they face Italy.

Norway’s attack has been clinical, and playing at home in Oslo gives them a further edge.

With Italy still adjusting to new personnel and a fresh system under Spalleti, Norway could catch the Azzurri off-guard early.

As always, a man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Erling Haaland, who sealed the victory against Israel (4-2), while Hoffenheim defender Leo Ostigard is back in contention after overcoming his minor injury. Arsenal ace Martin Odegaard made the cut as well.

Por que apostar na Itália?

Luciano Spalletti’s men are eager to get into the field and finally be able to kick off their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign in style, but beating Norway in Oslo is easier said than done.

They most recently fell 2-0 to Germany, raising concerns about their offensive fluency.

Italy is still integrating a younger squad, and their defensive stability may be tested without veteran Francesco Acerbi.

Atalanta man Davide Zappacosta is back to the Italy squad following a three-and-a-half-year absence, with star players Nicolo Barella, Sandro Tonali, and Alessandro Bastoni making the cut as well.

Análise Final das Apostas: Norway vs. Italy

Norway has been on the hot streak, hitting hard and keeping the defense tight, but even though we can’t say much yet on Italy as they are going to kick off in this match, we know they are a force to be reckoned with when they are running at full speed.

Os números em Troca de Gambila favor Italy, with a Moneyline of +154, while Norway sits at +166 and a draw at +262.

However, we believe that this is not yet the moment the Azzurri squad gets into full speed, especially as Norway is looking pretty strong in the UEFA Eliminatórias para a Copa do Mundo.

We expect this match to be even in the score 1-1.

Go for a draw. If you bet $100 at +262, you will gain $262 for a total payout of $362.
