Norway arrives in Linz after delivering what was likely their best performance under Ståle Solbakken, as they smashed Slovenia 3-0 on Thursday evening. The night at Ullevaal was especially memorable for Erling Haaland, who not only broke Jørgen Juve's scoring record for the national team but also announced to the world that he is going to be a father.
With a win in Linz, Norway would secure a firm grip on first place in their Nations League group, and promotion to League A would bring much more attractive opponents in the next edition. Norway currently tops the group with seven points, three ahead of both Austria and Slovenia.
Austria is likely seeking revenge tonight, as Norway won the reverse fixture at Ullevaal 2-1. Erling Haaland was the match-winner in the final moments with a goal that was initially ruled offside but was awarded after a long VAR check, giving Norway three points. Ralf Rangnick's team bounced back from the defeat in Oslo with a convincing 4-0 win over Kazakhstan on Thursday night.
