Scotland vs Norway Preview and Prediction
Thursday evening’s 2-2 draw away at Georgia has stretched Scotland’s winless run to four games, albeit with other three coming against teams who rank in the top seven of FIFA’s World Rankings.
Prior to that, Steve Clarks’s team were enjoying one of their finest winning runs in recent memory, after five successive victories in qualifying all but secured their spot in Germany next summer.
Spain’s convincing win in Cyprus ensured they will progress in first place, but meaningful preparations for Scotland’s second major tournament appearance over the past 24 years can begin to gather pace.
Their latest test comes in the form of Norway, who despite boasting some of the Premier League‘s elite talent, have failed to keep pace with the leading pack.
The reverse of this fixture in Copenhagen saw the hosts fall to the most agonising of defeats, with Lydon Dykes and Kenny McLean scoring within the final two minutes to claim an unlikely 2-1 win.
Scotland return to Hampden Park for the first time since losing to England two months ago, and we are predicting them to get back to wining ways on Sunday night – see our specific tips below.
Prediction: Scotland 2 – 1 Norway
Scotland vs Norway Tips
- Scotland to Score Over 1.5 Goals & Win @ 7/4
- Scott McTominay Over 1.5 Shots @ 6/5
- Combined Odds @ 4/1
Scotland vs Norway Tip One: Scotland Over 1.5 Goals and Win
Scotland have been dealt an incredibly tough run as of late, which has somewhat overshadowed that fairytale run of form between the end of March and the beginning of September.
Thursday night’s affair in Georgia was a dominant display on paper, controlling possession and registering more chances than their opponents. Lawrence Shankland’s injury-time heroics should also inspire an extra boost of confidence heading into the weekend.
They have won six of their last seven games on home soil, scoring at least twice in each of those victories. Against a Norway side who have won just once away from home in qualifying, we are tipping a win for the hosts here.
Scotland vs Norway Tip Two: McTominay Over 1.5 Shots
Scott McTominay has made a habit out of scoring in recent months, netting three goals for Manchester United this season to add to his goal-laden Euro qualifying campaign, where he ranks among the top scores with seven.
He plays a prominent role as an all-rounder for Scotland, often arriving late in the box unmarked, or trying his luck from distance, which he is certainly not afraid to do.
Although we haven’t predicted him to score, he should be firmly in the action on Sunday and over 1.5 shots at 6/5 makes it a noteworthy selection to bolster odds on bet builders.
