Our Brazil vs Norway bet builder tips take centre stage on Sunday evening as the pair face off for a place in the last eight of the World Cup. The match kicks off at 9:00pm (UK Time), in New York and we’re predicting a high-scoring contest between two sides who have plenty of goals in them. Stars such as Vinicius Junior and Erling Haaland will take to the field and both feature in our Brazil vs Norway bet builder tips below.
Brazil to make to the quarter-final
Brazil have grown into the tournament with every match and look well equipped for another deep World Cup run. Bruno Guimaraes continues to dictate play from midfield and has already registered four assists, while Vinicius Junior has consistently stretched defences with his pace and direct running. Those two should create enough opportunities for Brazil to break down an organised Norway side.
Norway possess plenty of attacking quality through Erling Haaland, Martin Odegaard and Antonio Nusa, so they will threaten going forward. However, Brazil have looked more balanced across the pitch and boast the experience to handle these high-pressure knockout ties.
Vini to make it five
Vinicius Junior has been one of the standout performers at this World Cup and remains Brazil’s biggest attacking threat. The Real Madrid winger has scored in every group-stage match, taking his tally to four goals, while only an outstanding save from Japan goalkeeper Zion Suzuki denied him a spectacular finish in the previous round.
The 26-year-old continues to create chances whenever he gets on the ball and is averaging 2.5 shots on target per game at the tournament. With Norway likely to focus much of their attention on containing Brazil’s midfield, Vinicius should find the space to exploit out wide and looks well placed to add another goal to his impressive World Cup campaign.
Haaland to hit the target
Erling Haaland has carried his remarkable international form into the World Cup and remains Norway’s greatest goal threat. The Manchester City striker has scored five goals at the tournament and extended his extraordinary scoring streak to 13 consecutive international appearances with the winner against Ivory Coast.
Haaland rarely needs many opportunities to make an impact and has already registered eight shots on target across his World Cup campaign. Even against Brazil’s talented defence, Norway will look to create chances for their number nine, making Haaland to have 2+ shots on target the final selection in our Brazil vs Norway bet builder tips.
