Ivory Coast vs Norway Preview and Team News
Ivory Coast Team News
Emerse Fae’s Ivory Coast have excelled at this summer’s World Cup, defying expectations to finish second in Group E. Their attacking quality caused issues for all three opponents in the opening round, as they scored four goals in their three fixtures against Germany, Ecuador, and Curacao.
Much of their success in the knockout stage will hinge on their counterattacking quality. Yan Diomande, Amad Diallo, and Nicolas Pepe have each registered at least two goal contributions this summer.
Ibrahim Sangare will be fit enough to start, and the central midfielder will be a key man alongside Franck Kessie in breaking up opponents’ attacks and getting the Elephants on the attack.
Kessie will need to be measured in the middle of the park, as he is one yellow card away from a one-game suspension.
Ivory Coast predicted lineup vs Norway (4-4-2): Fofana; Doue, Kossounou, O. Diomande, Operi; Diallo, Sangare, Kessie, Y. Diomande; Pepe, Bonny
Norway Team News
For the first time since 1998, Norway will be involved in the knockout stage at the World Cup. The Vikings have excelled under Stale Solbakken, with their attacking quality particularly catching the eye.
Norway have scored eight goals at the World Cup this summer, and confidence should still be high despite a 4-1 loss against France on MD3.
The Vikings made wholesale changes after securing their qualification, including giving Erling Haaland a rest. The striker has already scored four goals in two appearances.
Martin Ødegaard has also impressed at the tournament, recording two assists. The national captain will be recalled after being rested against France.
Norway predicted lineup vs Ivory Coast (4-1-2-3): Nyland; Ryerson, Ajer, Heggem, Wolfe; Berge; Ødegaard, Aursnes; Bobb, Haaland, Nusa
Ivory Coast vs Norway Prediction
- Pick: Norway to Win
- Odds: +104 (20Bet)
- Correct score prediction: Ivory Coast 1-3 Norway
This could be one of the most exciting matchups in the Round of 32, with both Norway and Ivory Coast excelling in the final third this summer.
However, the fact that the Vikings will recall many of their star players and will be well-rested after missing the defeat to France could be crucial. Haaland’s scoring record is already impressive, as he needed just 10 shots to score four goals.
His efficiency will be difficult to ignore, especially against an Ivory Coast side that have conceded twice in their last two outings and have failed to progress further than the Round of 32 in any edition of the World Cup.
Ivory Coast vs Norway Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Both Teams to Score
- Odds: -137 (20Bet)
Based on both nations’ defensive frailties and Ivory Coast’s prowess on the counterattack, a high-scoring clash is expected on Tuesday. The Ivorians have scored at least once in each of their last 12 internationals, but they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in three of their previous eight.
Norway have also thrived offensively, scoring 12 goals in their last five games. However, they have also failed to keep a clean sheet during that stretch.
