Norway to kick-start Euro 2024 qualifying campaign against Cyprus
Norway vs Cyprus - 20/06/2023
1899
On Tuesday night, Norway and Cyprus clash at the Ullevaal Stadion in Group A of qualifying for Euro 2024.
The Scandinavian side has not made the best start to their qualifying campaign, as they currently sit in fourth place in Group A after three games, having picked up a solitary point for their efforts.
Last time out in qualifiers, Stale Solbakken’s team suffered a 2-1 home defeat against Scotland. The loss means that Norway are winless in four games in qualifying while winning just two of their previous nine qualifiers.
One big factor in their poor recent run in qualifying is a poor defensive record, as they have conceded at least two goals in five of their last eight international matches, including three games in the Euro 2024 qualifiers.
Home advantage has not even been enough for Norway to pick up results, as they have won just two of their previous eight qualifiers on home soil.
Like their hosts, Cyprus has not got their qualifying campaign off to a great start, as they have lost their opening two qualifiers in Group A against Scotland and Georgia.
With qualification for Euro 2024 looking unlikely, giving a good account of themselves will be the visitor's main objective in the rest of their qualifiers.
The losing start to their qualification campaign was unsurprising, as Cyprus has now lost five straight games in qualifying for the European Championships. The visitors have also conceded at least two goals in all five of their consecutive defeats.
Cyprus has an inconsistent recent away record in European Championships, as they have won five and lost six of their games. Their recent matches on their travels in qualifying have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in 11 of their last 12 qualifiers.
