Norway vs Sweden - Match Preview

Norway vs Sweden is a classic Nordic derby that carries extra weight in June 2026, with both nations using it as their final tune-up before the FIFA World Cup starts just weeks later.

Norway return to the World Cup for the first time since 1998, ending a 28-year absence. Erling Haaland scored 16 goals in qualifying - the highest tally of any European player in this cycle - and coach Stale Solbakken's side faces France, Senegal and Iraq in the group stage. Solbakken described a match against Sweden as one that "always has something extra at stake", making the atmosphere at Ullevaal Stadion particularly charged.

Sweden arrived at qualification through a dramatic route under Graham Potter. After collecting just 2 points in their qualifying group, Potter's side rallied with a 3-1 win over Ukraine and a 3-2 victory against Poland in the play-offs to book their World Cup place. They face the Netherlands, Japan and Tunisia in Group F. Stars Viktor Gyökeres and Alexander Isak will look to sharpen their edge against competitive opposition in Oslo.

Head-to-Head: Norway vs Sweden

Norway have dominated recent meetings: across the last 5 encounters, they won 2 and drew 3, with Sweden failing to record a single win. Those 5 matches produced 18 goals in total, highlighting the attacking character of this Scandinavian rivalry.

Here are the results of the last 5 head-to-head meetings between Norway and Sweden:

• 12 June 2022 - Friendly - Norway 3:2 Sweden
• 5 June 2022 - Friendly - Sweden 1:2 Norway
• 8 September 2019 - EURO Qualifier - Sweden 1:1 Norway
• 26 March 2019 - EURO Qualifier - Norway 3:3 Sweden
• 13 June 2017 - Friendly - Norway 1:1 Sweden

Norway - Recent Form

Norway recorded 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat in their last 5 matches, scoring 10 goals and conceding 5 - a record that reflects their attacking potency heading into the World Cup.

The standout result was a 4-1 away win in Italy in November 2025, a performance that confirmed Norway's ability to compete with elite nations. They also beat Estonia 4-1 at home in the same international window. The only defeat came on the road against the Netherlands (1-2), and the most recent outing - a 0-0 draw with Switzerland in March 2026 - was a controlled, cautious finish to the preparation cycle.

Sweden - Recent Form

Sweden won 2 of their last 5 matches, drew 1 and lost 2, scoring 8 goals while conceding 9 - a defensive record that Graham Potter's staff will be looking to address before the tournament begins.

The 2 victories came at the most critical moments: the 3-1 win in Ukraine and the 3-2 home triumph over Poland in March 2026 sealed World Cup qualification under maximum pressure. Before those results, however, Sweden lost 1-4 to Switzerland and 0-1 at home to Kosovo - results that exposed defensive vulnerability and will give Norway encouragement ahead of the Oslo clash.
