Iraq take on Norway with the hope of winning their first-ever game at the World Cup. They were the final side to book their spot at the World Cup, beating Bolivia in the Inter-Confederation final back in early April.

Erling Haaland will feature at his first-ever World Cup after Norway managed to break the curse of failing to qualify for recent international tournaments with a flawless qualifying campaign.

📁 Iraq v Norway Cheat Sheet

📈 Iraq Qualification & Recent Form

Iraq are the last side to secure their place at the tournament, beating Bolivia in an Inter-Confederation playoff back in April.

They arrive as one of the bigger outsiders; they have never won a World Cup match, but showed they are no pushovers by holding Spain to a 1-1 draw in a warm-up fixture.

Discipline could be a concern, however, having picked up 25 yellow cards and three red cards during qualifying.

📈 Norway Qualification & Recent Form

Norway arrive on the back of a flawless qualifying campaign, winning all eight of their matches, including both games against Italy, and have lost just once in their last 16 across all competitions.

It is their first World Cup since 1998, and they could hardly have a more devastating frontman to mark the occasion. Erling Haaland scored 16 goals in qualifying, more than any other European player, and will be the name on everyone's lips heading into the tournament.
