The Netherlands national football team outplayed Lithuania in their previous fixture and will now be looking to extend their winning run.

The Ståle Solbakken-led side have also been on a positive run of form. They have also secured a slot in the FIFA World Cup 2026.

The Norway national football team have scored eight goals in their last two matches and outplayed Italy in their last fixture. Despite being away from home for their upcoming contest, Landslaget will be confident.
