Wales aim to derail Norway's Nations League revival bid in Oslo
· Sports · BBC Sport, Sportstar
Norway's squad faces a deteriorating pitch at home as they prepare to host Wales in Oslo on Saturday, having lost three consecutive Nations League games — their first winless streak in a decade. The visitors, sitting third in Group A4 with three points, visit Oslo knowing a victory would move them to second place and keep their quarter-final hopes alive, while Norway sit bottom with just one win from four outings. Wales' only campaign win came against Norway in Cardiff a month ago, and coach Craig Bellamy's side will target a second competitive victory in Oslo within three years to join Portugal and Spain. Norway's golden generation, featuring Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard, have struggled to replicate their World Cup form in this campaign, sitting level on points with Wales but below them due to head-to-head record.
Why it matters
Wales can move above Norway into second place in Group A4 with a win, keeping their Nations League quarter-final hopes alive, while Norway risk deepening a three-game losing streak not seen in a decade.
