The tactical read
Norway typically set up in 4-3-3 and make their first change around minute 52 - roughly 5 substitutions per game. Expect the first-sub window around then, earlier if they're chasing the game.
Over the last 6 matches, the same shape held up in 5 of them. The quickest hook came at 13' at home to Senegal; the longest wait stretched to 73' away at Iraq.
They've won more than they've lost across these 6 matches (4-0-2) - a manager riding momentum tends to stick with what's working, so don't expect wholesale changes to the plan.
