Northern Ireland continue their Nations League journey with a home clash against Norway tonight.

Ian Baraclough's side clawed their way to a gutsy 1-1 draw with Romania last week after playing for almost an hour with 10 men.

Josh Magennis' first-half red card compounded the misery of a George Puscas strike for the hosts, but Gavin Whyte scored with five minutes to go to secure a point in Group B1 with plenty more Nations League fixtures left to play.

Baraclough was hired during the coronavirus pandemic as a replacement for Michael O'Neill who performed admirably with the side over the past seasons.

He will be keen to assess his team ahead of the Euro 2020 play-offs to determine which sides will make it to next year's finals.

Northern Ireland v Norway team news

Northern Ireland: Magennis is suspended for this one, meaning at least one change will be made to the starting XI.

Goalscorer Whyte or Kyle Lafferty have been tipped to replace him if Baraclough opts to reshuffle the formation and potentially drop Paddy McNair deeper.

Jonny Evans is back in training and should start after missing the Romania game due to personal reasons.

Norway: Alexander Sorloth hasn't made an impact at Crystal Palace, but he has Champions League semi-finalists RB Leipzig waiting in the wings.

He could start for Norway, potentially in place of Bournemouth star Josh King, alongside Erling Haaland.

Our prediction: Northern Ireland v Norway

It took a while, but that is Dortmund superstar Haaland on the Norwegian team sheet.

Norway boast few high profile stars nowadays, but they don't come much bigger than Haaland who will expect to score in every game he plays, as he did against Austria last week.

Northern Ireland will hope the return of Evans' experience at the back can quash Haaland's impact. If they can do so, the rest of their team stands a good chance of going toe-to-toe with the Scandinavians.

Our prediction: Northern Ireland 1-1 Norway
