Sweden vs Norway recent form
Sweden’s 2-0 win over Slovenia came as a relief for the Blågult, who had suffered three defeats in their last four games. Janne Andersson’s team have registered 13 wins in their last 20 competitive outings and will look to continue their positive start to the League B schedule in the UEFA Nations League 2022-23.
Norway, on the other hand, are on a three-game winning streak. A solitary goal from Haaland propelled them to a 1-0 win in their opening fixture against Serbia, and they travel to a venue where they claimed a win in an international friendly match in 2005.
