Iraq vs Norway: Full list of substitutes for FIFA World Cup 2026 clash

These sides are going to face one another for the first time.

In the second match of Group I at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the Iraq national football team will lock horns with the Norway national football team. The exciting contest is set to take place at the Boston Stadium.

The Lions of Mesopotamia are going to have a stern test to pass in their first game of the mega competition this year. This will be their second-ever participation at a FIFA World Cup. They will be looking to begin things on a positive note, but it is not going to be an easy opening game for them. The Iraq national football team came up with a strong fight against Spain in one of their friendlies ahead of the flagship tournament and will be looking to put in similar efforts once again.

The Norway national football team can play high-pressing from the beginning. They must not allow Iraq to establish control. With Erling Haaland and Alexander Sorloth in the attacking front and Martin Odegaard in the midfield, the Landslaget are going to have a slight edge. They can come up with better control of the game. They will be looking to begin their campaign with a win, but might face a tough challenge.
