Brazil Vs Norway Live Streaming, FIFA World Cup 2026 Round Of 16: Preview, Predicted XIs, H2H, When, Where To Watch

Brazil will face Norway in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 16 on Sunday, July 6, at New York New Jersey Stadium, with a place in the quarter-finals at stake. The five-time world champions may start as favourites, but history favours Norway, who remain unbeaten against Brazil with two wins and two draws in their previous four meetings.

The two nations have met only four times, with Norway winning twice and drawing twice. Their most memorable triumph came at the 1998 World Cup, when they came from behind to defeat Brazil 2-1 in Marseille.

More than two decades later, Brazil are still searching for their first-ever win over the Vikings, adding extra intrigue to Sunday's knockout clash.

Carlo Ancelotti's side reached the knockout stage after topping Group C and then producing a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory over Japan in the Round of 32.

Casemiro cancelled out Kaishu Sano's opener before Gabriel Martinelli struck deep into stoppage time to send Brazil through. However, Brazil have injury concerns, with Casemiro racing to be fit, Raphinha ruled out and Lucas Paqueta doubtful.

Norway also booked their place in the last 16 with a late 2-1 win over Ivory Coast, as Erling Haaland netted the decisive goal. Stale Solbakken's men finished second in Group I behind France and have scored in every match at the tournament, with Haaland, Martin Odegaard and Alexander Sorloth leading their attack.

Brazil will be aiming to end their winless record against Norway and keep their quest for a sixth World Cup title alive, while the Vikings will hope to continue their impressive run and pull off another famous result against the Selecao.
