Brazil vs Norway Preview

The stage looks set for what should be one of the biggest games of the 2026 World Cup so far, as Brazil and Norway ready themselves for a classic in New York

Five time winners Brazil generate plenty of attention wherever they go and they start as the favourites for this one.

Norway however have shown real quality in the tournament thus far, progressing from a tough group and they are relishing their return to World Cup football after 28 years.

For both sides, the stakes are sky high and having come through scares against Japan and Cote d’Ivoire respectively, this will be a big step up for both countries.

With star studded lineups on display and some incredible individual talent, this should be a World Cup classic in the Big Apple.

Here is a look ahead to Brazil vs Norway:

It has been a curious World Cup campaign for Brazil, who haven’t been at their absolute best, but who find themselves in the last 16.

An opening game draw with Morocco was backed up with big wins over Scotland and Haiti and they had to dig deep to beat Japan in the last 32.

Carlo Ancelotti gives his players some real freedom though and they will be looking to outscore the Norwegians here.

For all the positives in the performances shown by Norway, they have demonstrated defensive frailties in all four games they have played.

This could be an absolute goal fest at the MetLife Stadium and with superior attacking options, Brazil should prevail here.

The rationale behind a goal fest is well justified, with both Brazil and Norway having banged the goals in at the 2026 World Cup.

Obviously, the stakes rise here and these are two teams who will be aware of the magnitude of this game from the off.

However, neither side backs down when it comes to playing attacking football and with some potent forward players on the pitch, this could be a long evening for the defenders on both teams, with Brazil great value to take the spoils.

Best Value Bet

Erling Haaland & Vinicius Jr to score (anytime) @ $4.50

Bet Now

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland and Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr are the key men for their respective countries, and they appear to be loving shouldering the responsibility.

Haaland has netted five times already in the tournament, from just three games played and he averages better than a goal per game for Norway.

Vinicius Jr is the man Brazil turn to in order to unlock defences, and his pace should cause Norway some serious issues.

With the goals expected to flow, both Haaland and Vini Jr should get in on the act.
