Norway will welcome Portugal to Ullevaal Stadion on Sunday in a highly anticipated UEFA Nations League League A clash, with Erling Haaland and Cristiano Ronaldo set to headline the contest.
Norway opened their campaign with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Denmark, with Haaland scoring twice, including the decisive goal, to give Ståle Solbakken’s side a winning start. They are competing in League A for the first time after earning promotion from League B.
Softfootball reports that Norway will be confident after their impressive 2026 World Cup campaign, where they reached the quarter-finals before losing 2-1 to eventual finalists England. Portugal, meanwhile, began their Nations League campaign with a 1-0 victory over Wales, with João Félix scoring the decisive goal.
