Norway will be looking for their second win in Group A when they continue their Euro 2024 qualifying battle against Georgia on Tuesday. The hosts are currently third in the group with four points, two behind second-placed Spain, while Georgia are fourth, having also amassed four points from their first four matches.
Norway have been struggling in Group A so far, winning only one of their four matches, with a total of four points putting them in third place in the group. They are only two points behind second-placed Spain, but with Spain having a game in hand, Norway could soon be eliminated if they don't get back-to-back positive results.
The Norwegian national team has only played in one European Championship final since 2000, and they haven't made it to the World Cup since 1998. They beat Cyprus 3-1 in their previous group game. They will be looking for back-to-back wins in this next match.
Georgia lost 1-7 to Spain in their last match, which allowed them to amass four points to sit in fourth place in Group A, trailing only Norway on goal difference. They have made a good start to the group stage but will need a positive result in this match after losing to Spain in their last game. This will be the fifth meeting between the two countries, with Norway holding the advantage in the all-time head-to-head record with three victories, while the other match was their reverse fixture in Group A, which resulted in a draw.
Looking at the squad situation, Norway's star player Elin Halland did not play against Jordan, but the Manchester City striker will start in this match. Norway's captain Martin Ødegaard will play in a three-man midfield for this game, while Oostigua will once again take his place in the defense.
As for Georgia, some rotation is expected after their last match against Spain. Despite their poor performance in their last match, they are still hopeful for a positive result in this match.
Looking at the recent records and team form of both teams, Norway is playing relatively well and they are expected to win this match. However, the Georgian team is also very strong and they have a strong desire to win. Overall, the result of this match could be Norway 2-1 Georgia.
