Norway didn't appear in any major tournament since 2000. Now, they have superstars in Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard, but it seems that, again, Norway will have big problems finishing among the best two teams in the group and qualifying for the European Championship. After four rounds, Norway have only four points. Spain are 2nd on the table with two points more, but with one game fewer played. Norway won the last two matches, including a friendly on Thursday versus Jordan (6-0 in Oslo). The home side didn't play with the best possible team but still recorded an easy win. That kind of win will give Norway much-needed confidence ahead of the important game against Georgia.
Georgia never played at any major tournament. They had a good start to the EURO 2024 qualifications, but in the last two matches, Georgia suffered two defeats, and now the first European Championship appearance seems very far. On Friday, Georgia lost 7-1 at home against Spain. Guests had one of the best games in the last few years, so Georgia suffered a heavy loss that will certainly affect the team's confidence.
Norway vs Georgia pick: Over 2.5 goals
Norway scored nine goals in the last two matches. On the other hand, Georgia showed all kinds of problems with allowing seven goals against Spain. Over 2.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.

Norway team news
Norway didn't play with their best possible XI in a friendly against Jordan. Of course, the biggest star in the squad, Erling Haaland, didn't play that game.
We should expect the forward to take his spot in the match against Georgia.
Also, the head coach Stale Solbakken will probably include Julian Ryerson and Birger Meling instead of Marcus Pedersen and Fredrik Bjorkan in the defense.

Georgia team news
Georgia have a reserve option to qualify for EURO 2024 through the Nations League playoff. It is hard for Georgia to find confidence after a humiliating 7-1 defeat, but the head coach Willy Sagnol and his players should have in mind that these games could be used to at least prepare themself for those Nations League games that could give Georgia much desired EURO appearance.
