In the first round of Group A of the Women's EHF Cup, the former dominant Norwegian women's soccer team met Northern Ireland women's soccer team. Although the Norwegian women's football team's recent performance has declined, the legendary striker Sigur Betsy's strong return has injected new vitality into the team. Facing the Northern Ireland women's soccer team for the first time, the difference in strength between the two teams is obvious, and the Norwegian women's soccer team is expected to win by a landslide, with the big odds of 3.5 goals becoming a popular choice. (Friday 3am kick-off)

Looking back at the last 10 editions of the Women's EHF EURO, the Norwegian women's soccer team has reached the quarterfinals 8 times, becoming the dominant team in the women's soccer world. However, in the last edition of the tournament, they unexpectedly exited in the group stage, raising concerns about this traditional strong team. This year, the Norwegian women's soccer team is back with a vengeance and full of confidence as they travel to England. With five wins in their last five matches and the return of ace striker Higbeez, they look set to repeat their success. Higbeth and Barcelona striker Caroline Hansen form a striker duo that has scored more than 80 goals for the national team and are on fire.

Northern Ireland women's football despite high spirits

The Northern Ireland women's soccer team is participating in the final week for the first time, albeit inexperienced, with most of the players in the team coming from the domestic league. There is still a big gap between the overall strength and the European powers. In the warm-up match before the final week, they were defeated by Belgium women's football team with 1-4. However, as the tournament was held in England, the Northern Ireland women's soccer team had the advantage of "half home field". Although they are not as strong as their opponents, they will still try their best to score goals and bring surprises to their fans.

According to statistics, the last four times the Norwegian women's soccer team played against the Northern Ireland women's soccer team, the total number of goals scored reached 5 or more. Including the two teams in the qualifiers in the same group showdown, the Norwegian women's football team home and away to 6-0 score to beat their opponents. As such, this match is likely to be a goal-fest once again, and the over-under of 3.5 goals is worth chasing.
