We said: Norway 3-0 Faroe Islands

The Faroes have never scored a goal against Norway, losing friendlies in 1992 and 1993 by scorelines of 2-0 and 7-0, respectively, and 2-0 and 4-0 in Euro 2020 qualifying, and a repeat is more than likely here. Even without Odegaard, and most likely Haaland, Norway should cruise to a victory against their fellow Nordic nation as they will hope to go out on a high against Scotland next week. Read more.
