Both teams have already qualified for the knockout stages, but they will still want to win here. Whoever, wins will finish topping the group and in theory get an easier game in the next round.

Here are our three football betting tips and the best free bet offers ahead of Friday evening’s clash at Gillette Stadium.

France to win and both teams to score

France has had a great group stage so far in this World Cup and it’s unlikely to stop now. A 3-1 win against Senegal and a 3-0 win against Iraq have shown that they are going to be tough to beat this year.

Captain Kylian Mbappe is leading by example with four goals in the first two games and he should get plenty of chances against this Norwegian defence. Defensively Les Bleus look solid as well having only conceded one goal.

They must now take on a Norwegian side who are easily one of the most exciting teams to watch in the tournament. They have also won both of their group games by beating Iraq 4-1 and Senegal 3-2.

Manchester City forward Erling Haaland is the main man for this exciting Norwegian attack, and he has scored four goals so far as well. Norway’s weakness is clearly their defence having conceded three times already and eventually it will probably cost them.

Expect an exciting game with two potent attacks but for the French defensive to ultimately get them the win.

Erling Haaland to score anytime

Erling Haaland has had a great start to the World Cup and it’s clear to see that the Norwegian team are set up for him to excel. In the two games that Norway has played, Haaland has had 10 shots with seven of them hitting the target.

Them shots have seen Haaland score four goals and it’s hard to see him not score again given how potent Norway’s attack is. They are going up against a strong French defence but it’s hard to see them stopping Haaland.

Martin Odegaard 2+ shots, Erling Haaland to score anytime, France to win the match

Only Erling Haaland has had more shots for Norway over the last two games than Martin Odegaard. The Arsenal and Norway captain is always up for having a couple of shots from distance and he should get some chances in this game.

Erling Haaland is a goal scoring machine for club and country. He scored 27 goals for Manchester City last season and another 16 goals in Norway’s qualifying campaign. Getting another one here wouldn’t be a shock.

Finally add France to win the match outright. Although Norway is a good attacking team, they are likely to concede as well. The French have the better all-round team and should get the win.

Norway and France meet in a decisive final Group I match, with both teams already qualified but still fighting for top spot. France have looked strong at both ends of the pitch, while Norway’s attack has been led by an in-form Erling Haaland. With Mbappe and Haaland both in excellent scoring form, this clash offers several interesting betting angles, especially for players comparing odds at the best betting sites.
