Erling Haaland and Norway will qualify for the 2026 World Cup on Sunday, barring a minor miracle from Italy.
How to Watch Italy vs Norway
Italy requires a minor miracle if it's to bag automatic qualification to the 2026 World Cup on Sunday when it travels to the San Siro to take on Italy. Erling Haaland and company have enjoyed a seamless run through UEFA qualifying thus far and sit atop Group I, three points ahead of Italy and with a far superior goal difference.
In short, Norway will most likely keep top spot even if it loses in Milan, with the Azzurri needing to win by nine goals or more in order to overturn the goal difference deficit currently working against them. And that much looks nigh impossible given Stale Solbakken's men won 3-0 when these teams met in Oslo back in June.
Italy scored twice in the dying minutes to beat Moldova 2-0 on Thursday and keep its dream of automatic qualification alive for the time being. However, the soccer gods will need to be smiling on Gennaro Gattuso's side if they're to finish any higher than second and somehow manage to avoid the play-off route.
