Norway and Senegal meet at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford on June 22 in a Group I fixture that carries immediate knockout implications for both sides. Norway sit top of the group after a 4-1 opening win over Iraq, while Senegal must respond after a 1-3 defeat to France. The Norway vs Senegal betting odds make Norway slight favorites at +135, with Senegal available at +215.
Norway’s opening performance sent an immediate message in Group I. Erling Haaland, the 25-year-old Manchester City striker who arrived at this tournament already carrying 55 international goals in 50 caps, leads a side that went through UEFA qualifying with a perfect 8W-0D-0L record, scoring 37 goals and conceding just five. Senegal, meanwhile, are in a position where anything other than a win on June 22 would leave their last-16 ambitions hanging by a thread heading into the final group game.
