Wales vs Norway Prediction, Team News & Super Sub Tips

Thu, 1 Oct 2026 · 19:45 UK · 20:45 CET/CEST · Cardiff City Stadium, Cardiff

Erling Haaland has scored three goals in Norway's first two games: two in the 3-2 win over Denmark and one in the 2-1 defeat by Portugal. Craig Bellamy's Wales have lost 1-0 to Portugal and 2-0 in Denmark without scoring. For a Haaland player bet, a bookmaker with Super Sub protection keeps the bet alive if he starts and is taken off.

Form & tactics

Current form and how the match could play out

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Wales

Wales lost 1-0 to Portugal and 2-0 in Copenhagen (a Ben Davies own goal and Gustav Isaksen). No goals and no points yet.

🇳🇴 Norway

Norway beat Denmark 3-2 (Oscar Bobb, Haaland twice) and lost 2-1 in Oslo to Portugal, with Haaland scoring again.

  • Norway's attack runs through Haaland in the box, with Oscar Bobb's running from wide. Wales will defend deep and look for counters.
  • Wales have not scored in two games. Their best chances are likely to come from set pieces.

Substitution protection

Super Sub for Wales vs Norway

Super Sub-style features can continue an eligible player selection with a replacement when the selected player is substituted. The operator's rules determine which selections qualify and how they settle. These features do not guarantee a win or protect team markets such as match results and total corners.

The list below only shows bookmakers licensed in your country with a substitution feature recorded in our database, and the markets their own rules name. Availability on this specific international match is decided market by market by the operator.

Loading bookmakers for your country…

Substitution protection is applied market by market. Coverage of UEFA Nations League fixtures is not confirmed individually for each operator — check that the feature badge is shown on the exact bet before you place it.

18+ · T&Cs apply · Please gamble responsibly

  1. Choose your country and check the operator's local eligibility requirements.
  2. Read the feature rules: eligible players, markets, replacements and bet types can differ.
  3. Confirm the player starts and that the exact selection shows the feature before placing the bet.
  4. Check the final odds and any offer terms. Set a limit you can afford; no bet is guaranteed.

FAQ

Wales vs Norway: questions and answers

What time is Wales vs Norway?

19:45 UK time on Thursday 1 October 2026 at Cardiff City Stadium.

What channel is Wales vs Norway on?

BBC Two, BBC iPlayer and S4C, with coverage from 19:20 (TVGuide.co.uk, checked 29 September).

How many goals has Haaland scored in this Nations League?

Three in two games: two against Denmark and one against Portugal.

Why use a Super Sub bookmaker for this match?

Line-ups are uncertain in a three-games-in-eight-days window. With Super Sub protection (Sub On Play On, Sub Switch, Impact Sub and similar), an eligible player bet — for example on Erling Haaland — can move to the replacement if your player starts and is substituted. It does not help if he does not start, and the bet can still lose. Check each operator's rules and wait for the official XI.
