Norway welcome Latvia to the Ullevål Stadion in Oslo for this crucial World Cup Qualifier Group G match. The Norwegians are on 17 points and are in second spot while Latvia are in fifth spot with 5 points. Both teams have played eight games.Norway come into this match after a 2-0 win in their last match against Montenegro .The home team are unbeaten in their last six qualifying matches and are just two points behind group leaders the Netherlands. Victory in this much could take them to the top of the group as the Netherlands have a difficult away fixture to Montenegro. The home team have had a very successful qualifying campaign with five wins,a draw and one loss. That loss surprisingly came at home against Turkey. Norway will be wary that Turkey are just two points behind in third spot and any dropped points could see them lose second spot.

Latvia had a disappointing qualifying campaign and their haul of five points from their eight matches is testimony to that. They had a 2-1 home loss to Turkey in their last match. They are out of the running for the qualifying spots and will look at their dreadful home form where they lost four of their five games as the main reason for their failure. The visitors have had two draws in their last two away fixtures but have not won in their last five away fixtures. They have kept one clean sheet in their last last nine matches with that being a goalless draw against Montenegro.
