Norway and New Zealand, facing each other for the first time in recorded history, will be aiming for a positive result in their final international match. This is a friendly clash that will be held at Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo. Here's our match prediction.
Norway are coming from a dominant display in the FIFA World Cup European qualifiers. Stale Solbakken's men had two qualifier matches lined up for October, and they won both of them in style.
Ruthless is a fitting word for their performance in the qualifiers as they began with an 11-1 demolition of Moldova before steamrolling Israel in a 5-0 home victory.
The Red, White and Blue now put their qualifying campaign on hold for now. Their focus is now on the friendly clash against New Zealand. This marks their first meeting against this nation.
New Zealand have already qualified for the 2026 World Cup, ending a 16-year absence from the world's grandest stage. They managed to achieve this feat by defeating New Caledonia 3-0 in the OFC qualifying final on March 24.
The All Whites have not been involved in any competitive matches since that triumph. Instead, they've been plagued with friendlies. They have put in a poor display, having won just one of their last five matches.
Their most recent defeat came against Poland. In unfamiliar territory, they suffered a 1-0 defeat.

Our Norway vs New Zealand Prediction
Norway have been trigger-happy in the final third, scoring an eye-popping 16 goals in their last two matches. They'll likely run riot once again and secure another dominant win against underdogs New Zealand.
New Zealand are in for a tough 90 minutes in their bid to avoid a heavy defeat. They have not had a great showing in friendly matches, suffering four consecutive defeats while conceding seven goals in the process. Little can be expected from them here in what will turn out to be a high-scoring affair. Our Norway vs New Zealand prediction: over 3.5.
