Norway hosts Malta in round 5 of Euro qualification. The match will be played on Thursday, September 5th at Ullevål Stadion (Oslo)
Still and all, the Norwegian team decided to change their image of the game in the current qualification for EURO 2020, changing the tactical defensive scheme, which did not bring the Vikings the desired dividends for many years, to a much more open and attacking style. That currently turned the Vikings into a virtual mirror reflection of the regular Norwegian club football championship, where almost no one bothers to defend their goal, trying to offend the opposing defense as much as possible! By the way, Lars Lagerback's men just turned into one of the most spectacular teams of the current Euro qualification, having held memorable scoring shootings with the Spaniards (1:2), the Swedes (3:3), and the Romanians (2:2). As we see, in addition to the offensive potential of Norway, its deficiencies of a defensive line were also seriously exposed.

As for Malta, this rather harmless team rarely made a hit in its history, mainly being satisfied with the success in the matches with similar “dwarfs” and others like them. Still, the islanders can boast of goals against more or less decent teams, such as Slovakia, Armenia (away), Ukraine (away), Lithuania, Scotland, etc.! By the way, for reference, the Maltese hit the goal of all their opponents in away matches of the recent UEFA League of Nations, especially Azerbaijan, Faroe Islands, and Kosovo.
But for those whom my bold prediction might make laugh, I’ll remind you that not so long ago (three years ago), Norway managed to concede a goal in Oslo even from “dead” San Marino ( a 4-1 victory in the World Cup qualification)… Make your conclusions!
Prediction for the match: Malta to score over 0.5 goals
