On Friday night, Norway and Romania clash in Oslo in Group F of qualifying for the European Championships.

Norway have made a poor start to their qualifying campaign, losing 2-1 to Spain in their group opener and drawing 3-3 with neighbours Sweden last time out in qualifying.

The home side has been relatively hard to beat of late in the international game, as they have lost just two of their last 11 outings. Their recent matches have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in seven of their last nine games.

Norway has a poor recent record in qualifying for the European Championships, as they have failed to win in five games. However, the aforementioned draw against Sweden at least ended a four-game losing run for the home side.

Norway have an inconsistent recent record on home soil in the European Championships qualifiers, as they have won three, drawn two and lost one of their last six qualifiers on home soil. Their home qualifiers have also been relatively low-scoring of late, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five games.

Romania heads into this clash in good form, as they have won three of their last four international matches. The visitors have enjoyed mixed fortunes in their opening qualifiers, though, losing their opener against Sweden 2-1 before hammering the Faroe Islands 4-1 last time out.

The visitor’s recent games have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four matches.

Romania have a mixed recent record in qualifying. However, the defeat against Sweden was their only loss in European Championship qualifiers in 18 outings.

The defeat also ended a seven-game unbeaten away run in qualifiers for the team from Eastern Europe.

Despite Romania’s recent ability to avoid defeat in qualifiers, Forebet predicts that Norway will record a possibly vital win in a low-scoring game.
