Brazil vs Norway: Betting guide for the World Cup 2026 round of 16

The 2026 FIFA World Cup knockout stage kicks off with a heavyweight clash between Brazil and Norway at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Sunday, July 5. The match is scheduled for 4:00 PM ET (23:00 Kyiv time), and oddsmakers at GGBET have installed the five-time champions as clear favorites. GGBET's opening line shows Brazil to win in regulation at 1.84, a Norway victory at 4.43, and a draw at 3.82. But savvy punters know the real value lies in alternative markets. One intriguing option is the double chance — Brazil or draw — combined with both teams to score, priced at 2.24. The Seleção have lost just one of their last ten matches, but have conceded in seven of those, while also scoring in all but three. Norway, led by the red-hot Erling Haaland, have failed to find the net in only one of their previous ten outings, and that same game was the only time they kept a clean sheet. Speaking of Haaland, his anytime goalscorer odds are set at 2.35. The Norwegian striker has taken to his first World Cup like a duck to water, netting five times in three group-stage appearances. He has found the back of the net in 13 consecutive official internationals — a remarkable run that shows no sign of stopping. Another solid play is over 2.5 total goals at 1.76. Seven of Brazil's last ten matches have produced three or more goals, and the same is true for eight of Norway's previous ten fixtures. With Haaland in red-hot form and Brazil's defense occasionally leaky, the stage is set for an entertaining, high-scoring affair. Summer can mean beach time, holidays, or heatwaves — but this summer is all about the biggest game on earth. After a four-year wait, the World Cup is back.
