Norway vs Sweden Competition – International Friendly Stadium: Ullevaal Stadion Date: 1st June 2026 Kick-off time – 17:00 GMT
Monday afternoon at the Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo brings one of Scandinavia’s most keenly contested rivalries, as Norway host Sweden in a pre-World Cup international friendly. With the tournament just days away, this is the final dress rehearsal for both sides — a last chance to settle on shape, sharpen combinations and give the coaching staff clarity on selection before squads are locked in. The occasion carries the additional edge that a Nordic derby always produces regardless of context.
Norway head into this game in steady if unspectacular form. Their most recent outing was a goalless home draw against Switzerland in March. Prior to that, a 2-1 defeat away at the Netherlands in a competitive friendly. Before that, one of their finest results of the recent cycle — a stunning 4-1 away win in Italy in World Cup qualifying. Earlier in this run, a comfortable 4-1 home win over Estonia kept their qualifying momentum rolling. The sequence opened with a 1-1 home draw against New Zealand. Two wins from five, with the result in Italy standing out as the headline performance, reflects a Norway squad that is capable of something exceptional but has not always produced that level consistently.
Sweden arrive in Oslo having closed out their qualifying campaign with real momentum. Their most recent outing was a 3-2 home win over Poland in World Cup qualifying. Prior to that, a 3-1 away win in Ukraine — a significant result that underlined their quality on the road. Before that, a 1-1 home draw with Slovenia. Earlier in this run, a heavy 4-1 away defeat to Switzerland was a setback. The sequence opened with a 1-0 home loss to Kosovo. Two wins from five tells only part of the story — the two most recent results, back-to-back qualifying victories, suggest a side that has found form at the right moment.
Sweden’s injury situation is the more significant of the two heading into this fixture. They arrive without Holm, Stroud, Abdi Ali, Gudmundsson and Starfelt — five players ruled out across attacking, midfield and defensive positions. The loss of Starfelt at the back and Gudmundsson in midfield is particularly notable for a side preparing for the World Cup. Norway report no injury concerns and will take to the field at full strength.
The head-to-head record favours Norway, who have won two of the last five meetings, with three draws and no wins for Sweden. Most recently, Norway won 3-2 at home in the Nations League in June 2022. In the previous encounter, Norway won 2-1 away at Sweden, also in the Nations League, days earlier in June 2022.
In Norway, the match is live on TV2 Sport and available via TV 2 Play. In Sweden, viewers can follow on Viaplay Sweden. The game is also available in the UK and Ireland on Amazon Prime Video, and in Germany on DAZN Germany.
Injuries
Norway: No injuries reported.
Sweden: Holm (Out), Stroud (Out), Abdi Ali (Out), Gudmundsson (Out), Starfelt (Out)
Sweden carry a significant injury burden into this fixture. Five absentees spanning the defensive line, midfield and attack leave meaningful gaps in their squad, and the absence of Starfelt at centre-back in particular will test their depth in a key position. Norway are fully fit and hold a clear advantage in terms of squad availability heading into Monday’s match.
