Norway vs Slovenia Prediction & Betting tips
In order to achieve a victory that will allow him to get involved in the fight for the first place in Group 3 of the League C in the UEFA Nations League, on Saturday the Norwegian team jumps to the gravel of the Ulleval Stadion in Oslo, to receive the visit of a modest team from Slovenia.
Norway:
Those led by Sweden’s Lars Lagerback made their UEFA European League debut on the right foot when they beat Cyprus 2-0 at home thanks to a good performance from Stefan Johansen who scored a double in that game. Unfortunately the story was different in his visit to Bulgaria where they lost 1-0 and with it also lost a streak of five consecutive victories.
So at the moment Norway is in second place with three points and this Saturday he needs to win to equalize in the first place to Bulgaria and for this he will be able to count on the support of his fans which has been fundamental in his last commitments, every time that with their 2-0 triumph against Cyprus, they have a five-game winning streak against their fans and an undefeated eight-game home tie.
Slovenia:
For its part, the performance of those led by Toma Kavcic have not gone well, so the Slovenian team has lost in their two games of the League of Nations, first at home against Bulgaria and then on his visit to Cyprus , both with the score of 2-1.
These results are a reflection of the poor level shown by Slovenia in 2018, where they only scored one victory in their five games and it was against a modest Montenegro by a score of 0-2, and to vary the remaining four ended in defeats, and if we want to be more extensive, of the last seven games were only victorious in an opportunity.
As for their numbers away from home, it must be said that they come from a five-game losing streak and a victory in their last six outings, so the outlook is not very pleasant for a Kavcic who has to put all his hopes in that they can make their main references of area such as Robert Beric and Miha Zajc.
In terms of direct confrontations, we have to say that the last time they met was the qualifiers for the 2014 Brazil World Cup and each won their home game, first Norway won 2-1 while for the rematch Slovenia won 3-0 , in what has also been the only Slovenian victory in the seven direct confrontations against Norway, where five of them were Norwegian triumphs.
