Ivory Coast vs Norway Main Match Info

Ivory Coast vs Norway Moneyline Prediction

Despite finishing second in their group after a heavily rotated 4-1 defeat to France, Norway have looked consistent throughout the tournament. They averaged 2.7 goals and 1.8 xG per match during the group stage, compared to Ivory Coast’s 1.3 goals and 1.1 xG.

The Elephants defended well, conceding only 0.7 goals per game. However, they created fewer high-quality chances and relied heavily on Nicolas Pépé, whose two goals against Curacao accounted for half of their tournament tally.

Stale Solbakken’s decision to rotate against France gives Norway an important physical edge entering the Round of 32. As a result, they are slight favourites to win.

Ivory Coast vs Norway Player Prop

Erling Haaland has already scored four goals in only two World Cup starts and has generated 2.68 xG. Ivory Coast conceded only twice during the group stage, but they now face the most physical No. 9 they have encountered in the tournament.

Ousmane Diomande and Odilon Kossounou are strong defenders, but Haaland’s advantage is clear when Norway attack early crosses, cut-backs, and second balls inside the six-yard box.

If Ivory Coast defend deep, Haaland can dominate the penalty area. If they step higher, the Vikings can release him into space to create goalscoring opportunities.

Ivory Coast vs Norway Same Game Parlay

Norway to Win: Norway rotated the whole squad ahead of this clash, which could prove decisive against an exhausted Ivory Coast side. With greater attacking quality throughout the lineup, Stale Solbakken’s men are favourites to advance.

Erling Haaland to Score: Haaland has scored four goals in the competition, and his massive attacking influence makes him the clearest goalscorer selection. He is also the Vikings’ primary penalty taker, which gives him extra chances to score.

BTTS: Norway have conceded in each of their last five matches, including pre-tournament friendlies.

Since September 2024, Solbakken’s side have scored in every game but one. Ivory Coast also found the net in all group-stage encounters, making both teams to score an appealing option.

Ivory Coast Team News 

Ivory Coast finished second in the group after beating Ecuador and Curacao. They scored four goals with 4.05 xG and never generated fewer than 1.22 xG at this World Cup. The Elephants have been efficient in attack, but they still focus more on defensive solidity.

Yan Diomandé, the team’s main creator, provided an assist in the last match, while Nicolas Pepe bagged a brace against Curacao. In midfield, the powerful duo of Franck Kessie and Ibrahim Sangaré provide stability, disrupting opposition attacks and helping launch quick transitions.

The Ivorians approach the knockout stage without notable injuries. Evan Ndicka has recovered from a thigh issue.

Norway Team News

Norway advanced confidently from the group in second place, showcasing an effective attack throughout the tournament. They thrashed Iraq 4-1 with 2.52 xG and lost to France 1-4 with a respectable 1.7 xG. Their 3-2 victory over Senegal ultimately secured their place in the knockout stage.

Erling Haaland has been the Vikings’ standout performer with four goals in two matches, while Martin Odegaard has already recorded two assists. The 21-year-old Antonio Nusa is an explosive winger whose fast runs on the flank create additional chances for both Haaland and Alexander Sorloth.

Norway’s only notable absentee remains right-back Julian Ryerson. He is out with a thigh injury.
