THE KEY STATS

  • Norway have lost only one of the last five competitive U21 matches between these two nations (W2 D2).
  • Norway have only won one of their last five U21 EURO final tournament matches (D2 L2).
  • Norway have not failed to score in their last 12 U21 EURO qualifying and final tournament matches.
  • France have never failed to qualify from their group at a U21 EURO final tournament (four previous occasions; 2002, 2006, 2019, 2021).
  • France have only lost one of their previous 13 matches in the group stage at the U21 finals (W11 D1).
  • France have only failed to score in two of their last 13 U21 EURO final tournament matches.
  • France have never conceded more than one goal in a group match at the U21 finals (13 matches played).

THE PREDICTION

Under the management of Leif Gunnar Smerud, Norway began the ‘group of death’ with a 2-1 defeat to Switzerland in Cluj. On paper, that is Norway’s easiest game so, despite how difficult this group is for them, it does look certain to be a disappointing early exit. A stacked and star-studded French squad began their campaign with a 2-1 win over Italy thanks to a second-half Bradley Barcola winner. France are firm favourites for this one and will hope to have top spot wrapped up on Sunday evening.

BETTING TIP: FRANCE TO WIN
