Norway vs Wales live: Confirmed teams and line ups 

Norway and Wales have named their starting teams for their Nations League Matchday 5 meeting at the Ullevaal Stadion on Saturday.

Either side is certain to be out of contention for the quarter-finals if they lose, while Wales will guarantee they will not be relegated if they win and Denmark avoid defeat in their simultaneous fixture away to Portugal.

Norway have lost their last three games – including a 2-1 defeat in Wales on Matchday 3 – and will be relegated if they suffer another defeat and Denmark earn a point.

Wales suffered a third defeat of their first four games of the campaign with a 1-0 loss at home to The Red and Whites on October 4.
