Extratips welcomes you to the Norway vs Estonia World Cup Qualifier Preview

Norway faces Estonia on November 13, 2025, at Ullevaal Stadion for a World Cup qualifier. Norway look unstoppable so far, topping Group I with a flawless 6-0-0 record (18 points) and a massive +26 goal difference. Estonia, by contrast, have just 4 points after 7 matches and a -10 goal difference, fighting for pride near the bottom. Bookmakers see Norway as overwhelming favorites with full-time odds of 1.03 for a home win, 12.00 for a draw, and a huge 34.00 for an Estonia upset.

Norway have dominated head-to-head play lately, winning the last duel 1-0 in June 2025. The last five meetings: Estonia 0-1 Norway (2025), Estonia 0-0 Norway (2016), Norway 0-1 Estonia (2014), Estonia 1-2 Norway (2005), and various friendlies that saw close contests. Looking at form: Norway have won all recent qualifiers at home, displaying solid defense and Haaland's lethal finishing. Estonia’s away form has been rough, with more losses than wins.

Key strengths for Norway: clinical attack led by Haaland (12 goals in 6), creative midfield with Ødegaard (if fit), and relentless home support. Weaknesses center on over-reliance on Haaland, and occasionally slow starts. Estonia’s strength is team discipline and counter-attacks, but weakness lies in chance creation and defensive gaps under pressure. Norway will be missing Martin Ødegaard (injured), a creative blow, while Estonia report no major absences.

Two intriguing storylines: Can Norway keep their perfect record and set the tone for the knockout stages? Will Estonia spring a surprise—or simply aim to show defensive resilience? This match is a true test of attack vs. underdog defense.

All eyes are on Norway’s firepower to settle the contest early. Look for a one-sided scoreline unless Estonia can dig in and frustrate the home side.
