Key player Norway
With the absence of star player Haaland until 2022, Norway has struggled to replace him in attack, but Mohammed Elyounoussi will have to shoulder the responsibility of creating chances and also be more involved in finishing, especially with two very important games coming up for the Norwegian team.

Latvia: to make a splash
Latvia has nothing left to fight for after being eliminated, but it will be looking to do its best and put its foot down against the Dutch team. They have just one win in the sector, two draws and five defeats, and have scored eight goals in eight matches.
Norway: to qualify for the World Cup
Norway has the chance after a long time to return to a World Cup and is depending on itself to do so. In theory, this is a winnable match, but they should not be overconfident, remembering that they will close the group stage at the home of the Netherlands and that is where the direct pass and also the ticket to re-qualification will be defined.
The Kick-off
The Norway vs Latvia match will be played at the Ullevaal Stadion, in Oslo, Norway. The kick-off is scheduled at 12:00 pm ET.
