On Thursday, September 5, starting at 19:45 pm, Norway will meet Malta in the 5th round of Group F qualifying for EURO 2020.
After the first 4 rounds, the host team gathered 5 points. The footballers led by Lars Lagerbäck started this group with a defeat in Spain (2-1), followed two draws registered on their own ground 3-3 with Sweden and 2-2 with Romania, and in the last match played, they prevailed with 2-0 in the Faroe Islands. Given the fact that Spain should win the group, Norway would fight with Sweden and Romania for the 2nd place, and the two draws I mentioned above do not put Norway in a favorable position for the 2nd place. century. The Bokkmakerii offers a fee of 6 for Lars Lagerbäck’s band to rank in one of the first two places.
On the other side, the guest band occupies the 5th place with a total of 3 points. Malta won “at home” with the Faroe Islands (2-1) and then lost to Spain (0-2), Sweden (3-0) and Romania (0-4). It is worth noting that the team coached by Ray Farrugia has the weakest offensive with only two goals scored.
It is clear, the difference in value is obvious and normally does not have to lose points in this game. Very important is that in just 3 days, Norway will play in Sweden, a match much more important for Lars Lagerbäck’s lineup. Therefore, against Malta it is expected to see a representative of the Nordics, which will be missing some important players. Given the fact that Malta will most likely approach the game in a defensive manner, we should not attend an extremely spectacular match.
PREDICTION: Over 2,5 goals @ 1,37
