Norway vs England

Expect a thrilling atmosphere at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami when Norway and England square off in the World Cup quarter-finals. Norway pulled off one of the biggest surprises of the tournament by defeating Brazil 2-1 in the last 16, with Erling Haaland scoring twice late on to send the Scandinavians into the final eight. Benfica duo Andreas Schjelderup and Fredrik Aursnes are both pushing for starting roles after making a real impact off the bench against Brazil. Norway have won six of their last ten matches in all competitions, averaging 2.1 goals scored per game, but it has to be noted that they failed to create a descent goal-scoring opportunity against Brazil before Haaland's opener (79th minute).

England, meanwhile, edged past tournament hosts Mexico 3-2 in a thrilling last-16 encounter. The Three Lions will be without suspended defender Jarell Quansah following his red card, but Reece James is expected to return in time to strengthen the back line. Harry Kane has been England's standout performer at the 2026 World Cup, already scoring six goals, and he will once again be the biggest threat to the Norwegian defence. England have won seven of their last ten matches while conceding just 0.7 goals per game, making them slight favourites to progress despite Norway's impressive run. As England have greater squad depth and more experience in high-pressure knockout matches, we are tempted to bet on Away Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (Norway have seen BTTS land in nine of their last ten matches, while both attacks are packed with quality).
