Oddevold hold a superior head-to-head dominance over the hosts. Rikard Nilsson’s men have secured four wins from seven visits to this stadium. Led by Leonardo Farah Shahin, the visitors will exploit Norrby's defensive frailties.

Falkenbergs' capable attack, coupled with a somewhat fragile defence, has produced several high-scoring encounters of late. Over 2.5 goals has landed in each of their last six league fixtures.

FK Haugesund enters this fixture with massive momentum, riding a three-game winning streak in the OBOS-ligaen that includes an explosive 4-3 away victory over Raufoss and a commanding 3-1 home win against Moss. Sitting 3rd in the standings with 22 points, they boast the most lethal attack in the division with 30 goals scored in just 10 matches. Facing a 6th-placed Ranheim squad that has shown inconsistency on the road, Haugesund's superior offensive depth and home turf advantage at the Haugesund Sparebank Arena make them strong favorites to take all three points.

Curaçao could struggle with stage fright in their World Cup debut, with the Germans likely to get on the front foot from the get-go. I fancy the European side to score at least twice in the first-half.

The Netherlands arrive with high expectations despite a few injury concerns. Ronald Koeman's side came through qualifying unbeaten, scoring 27 goals in eight matches, and still possess plenty of quality through Virgil van Dijk, Frenkie de Jong, Cody Gakpo and Donyell Malen. The Dutch have also never lost to Japan, winning two of their three previous meetings.

Japan are one of the most dangerous outsiders in the tournament. They’re on a five-game winning streak, including impressive victories over Brazil and England. Their aggressive pressing style and quick transitions can cause problems for any opponent, but facing a technically strong Dutch side is a different challenge altogether.

Ivory Coast have impressed offensively in recent games, scoring two or more goals in six of the past seven games while facing some really good teams like France, South Korea, and Egypt... Meanwhile, Ecuador scored in eight out of the last nine games.
