UEFA Nations League is in full swing and on Saturday evening Slovenia is going to host Norway in League B battle. After 4 games, Norway is in first place with 10 points while Slovenia is last with 2. If Norway today wins and Serbia loses points against Sweden, then Norway will guarantee promotion to League A. Serbia is playing almost three hours later so Norway won't know the score so they just need to go after three points versus Slovenia who is also going to do everything in order to get three points so they could avoid relegation.

The last game versus Slovenia was the only one so far when Norway didn't score a goal. Norwegians dominated with 18 shots but couldn't get the ball into the net. The away record for Norway has been pretty good with 5 wins in 7 games. In the last 6 home games, Slovenians have 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses. The game against Norway was the first in this group when Slovenia didn't allow at least 2 goals so defense is a big issue for the home team.

So far Norway has scored 6 goals while Slovenia has 3. If we look at xG stats there is a difference because the xG rating for home games for Slovenia is only 0.96 while for Norwegians away games it has been 1.26. There is one player in Norway's roster that has to be mentioned - Erling Haaland. One of the best strikers in the world has an awesome Premier League start by scoring 11 goals in 7 games and we can add 3 more goals in 2 Champions League games. Every day Haaland is competing against the best players in the world but we can't say the same for Slovenia.

In the previous Nations League season, Norway had a great chance to advance to League A. They had a loss and draw in the last two games and they blew the opportunity. They know that this time they can't repeat the same mistakes and motivation should be sky high. During the last four Nations league games, Haaland has 5 goals and I'm confident that Slovenians won't be able to stop him two times in a row. Out of the last 7 games between teams, Norway has won four. Norway will be eager to get revenge for the previous draw and show that they deserve to be in League A. Haaland is going to score at least one goal and Norway will get the victory stepping closer to the promotion.

In 2019, Portugal's national football team won Nations League and now they aren't so far away to make the playoffs. On Saturday night, Portugal is playing against the Czech Republic. When there are only two games left, Portugal is in second place with 7 points trailing Spain by only a point while the Czech Republic is in 3rd position with 4 points while Switzerland is last with 3 points.

In the last matchday, Portugal is going to host Spain and this should be the battle for first place. It is pretty sure that Spain will beat Switzerland so the Portuguese can't afford to lose points. The last results show that the Czechs aren't in great shape as they haven't won three games in a row. Portugal in the previous game lost to Switzerland but before that, they had 2 game winning streak.

Yes, the Czechs haven't lost at home seven games in a row but some of those games were against teams like Estonia, Belarus, Wales, and Kuwait. Portugal is a much tougher opponent and they have beaten the Czech Republic in the last three meetings. Portugal has scored the most goals so far in this group (7) while for the Czechs four shots went through the net. If we compare xG stats, the advantage goes to Portugal - 1.35 versus 0.70.

Patrik Schick is going to be the main star for the Czechs but the team possibly will miss Petr Sevcik while Michal Sadilek wasn't called up because of a hamstring injury. Portugal is going to be without Cancelo who has picked too many yellow cards and Pepe but other stars, including Cristiano Ronaldo, will be ready. Yes, this season hasn't been the best for him but Portugal is his team and he's still capable of showing great performance especially with World Cup coming up.

Despite the absentees, Portugal is the better side on paper and has the upper hand, especially in midfield and attack to make the difference. While the Czech Republic will be motivated by the home support, the Portuguese should rise to the occasion in what is a must-win game. Portugal's destiny is in their own hands and they are going to win this game.

欧足联国家联赛正在如火如荼地进行，周六晚上斯洛文尼亚将在乙级联赛中主场迎战挪威。经过4场比赛，挪威以10分排名第一，斯洛文尼亚以2分排名最后。如果挪威今天赢了，而塞尔维亚在与瑞典的比赛中丢分，那么挪威将确保晋级甲级联赛。塞尔维亚的比赛将在三小时后进行，所以挪威不知道比分，所以他们只需要在对阵斯洛文尼亚时取得三分，而斯洛文尼亚也将竭尽全力获得三分，以避免降级。

上一场对阵斯洛文尼亚的比赛是迄今为止挪威唯一一球未进的比赛。挪威人以18次射门控制了比赛，但却未能将球送入球门。挪威的客场战绩相当不错，7场比赛5胜。在过去的6场主场比赛中，斯洛文尼亚队取得了2胜2平2负的成绩。对阵挪威的比赛是本组第一场，当时斯洛文尼亚没有丢至少2球，所以防守对主队来说是个大问题。

到目前为止，挪威进了6球，斯洛文尼亚进了3球。如果我们看看xG数据，就会发现差别，因为斯洛文尼亚主场比赛的xG评分只有0.96，而挪威客场比赛的xG评分是1.26。在挪威的球员名单中，有一名球员不得不被提及——埃林·哈兰德。作为世界上最好的前锋之一，他在英超联赛的开局非常出色，在7场比赛中打进11球，我们可以在2场欧冠比赛中再进3球。哈兰德每天都在和世界上最好的球员竞争，但我们不能对斯洛文尼亚说同样的话。

在上个赛季的国家联赛中，挪威曾有很大的机会晋级a联赛，但在最后两场比赛中遭遇了一负一平的局面，他们错失了机会。他们知道这次他们不能再犯同样的错误了，他们的动力应该高涨。在过去的四场国家联赛中，哈兰德打进了5球，我相信斯洛文尼亚人不可能连续两次阻止他。在过去的7场比赛中，挪威赢了4场。挪威队渴望为之前的平局复仇，并证明他们配得上a联赛。哈兰德至少会进一球，挪威队将赢得这场胜利，向升级更近一步。

2019年，葡萄牙国家足球队赢得了国家联赛冠军，现在他们距离进入季后赛已经不远了。周六晚上，葡萄牙队将对阵捷克队。在剩下的两场比赛中，葡萄牙以7分落后西班牙1分排名第二，捷克以4分排名第三，瑞士以3分排名最后。

在最后一个比赛日，葡萄牙将主场迎战西班牙，这应该是第一名的争夺。西班牙肯定会击败瑞士，所以葡萄牙人不能丢分。最后的结果显示，捷克的状态不是很好，因为他们没有赢得三连胜。葡萄牙在上一场比赛中输给了瑞士，但在那之前，他们有2连胜。

是的，捷克没有在主场连续七场输球，但其中一些对手是爱沙尼亚、白俄罗斯、威尔士和科威特等球队。葡萄牙是一个更强的对手，他们在最近三次交锋中击败了捷克。葡萄牙队是该小组迄今为止进球数最多的球队(7球)，而捷克则有4球入网。如果我们比较xG数据，优势属于葡萄牙- 1.35对0.70。

帕特里克·希克将成为捷克的主力球员，但球队可能会失去彼得·塞夫西克，而米哈尔·萨迪莱克因为腿筋受伤没有被征召。葡萄牙队将失去吃了太多黄牌的坎塞洛和佩佩，但包括c罗在内的其他球星将做好准备。是的，这个赛季对他来说不是最好的，但葡萄牙是他的球队，他仍然有能力展现出出色的表现，特别是在世界杯即将到来的时候。

尽管缺席了几名球员，但葡萄牙在纸面上更占优势，特别是在中场和进攻上更占优势。虽然捷克将受到主场支持的鼓舞，但葡萄牙人应该在这场必须赢球的比赛中振作起来。葡萄牙的命运掌握在他们自己手中，他们将赢得这场比赛。
