The Netherlands will look to extend their lead at the top of their group with a win over Norway when the two sides meet in the World Cup qualifiers this week.
The two sides will meet on the 16th of November at 19:45 pm BST.
The Netherlands are at the top of their group right now but the likes of Turkey and Norway are breathing down their necks. Both teams are just two points adrift of the Dutch and they could turn the tables with wins this week.
The home side will be desperate for a win here and it will be interesting to see if the players can step up and get the job done.
Norway are without star striker Erling Haaland but they will fancy their chances of pulling off an upset here.
