2. Both Teams to Score (BTTS):
   • Reason: Both teams have demonstrated the ability to score in recent matches. Norway and Austria both have strong attacking players and have scored in most of their recent games, making BTTS a likely outcome.
3. Over 2.5 Goals:
   • Reason: Given both teams’ attacking strengths and defensive vulnerabilities, there is a high chance of a high-scoring game. Norway and Austria have frequently been involved in matches with multiple goals.
4. Norway to Win by 1-2 Goals:
   • Reason: Norway is expected to edge out Austria, but it’s likely to be a close contest. A margin of 1-2 goals is a reasonable prediction considering both teams’ recent performances and head-to-head record.
5. First Half Score:
   • Bet: Norway to Score First.
   • Reason: Norway’s home advantage and their recent form suggest they might start strong. Austria has had some issues defensively, which could lead to Norway scoring early.
