General match analysis
Typ 1X2 after 90 minutes: 1. This is the main sensation of the quarterfinals. England has more squad depth and experience, but in the cup it was forced to react twice, instead of calmly controlling the course. Norway has the easiest path to a goal in the whole round: a quick transfer of play, Haaland in the penalty area, a second ball and a shot from a high-quality position. The risk for Norway is illness and fatigue in the frame, which is why we do not raise it above 40% after 90 minutes. Despite this, the matchup is very unpleasant for England, because each move of the defenders higher creates space, and moving back the line gives away the initiative and crosses. Typ We Norway because this match may be decided by two Haaland moments rather than overall ball control. Our prediction: 37% for Norway, 29% for draw and 34% for England. Most likely exact score: 2:1. Promotion after the whole match: Norway (54% vs 46%). Status: BET
