Match previews

Sergio Ramos became Europe's most-capped outfield player in Spain's encounter with Norway on Sunday but a last-gasp Joshua King penalty stopped the Euro 2008 and 2012 champions from marking the occasion with three points.

The 1-1 draw kept Norway's slim automatic qualification ambitions alive and they should be confident of taking the spoils in each of their last three group assignments, starting with a trip to Romania.

The hosts lead Norway by three points in the standings but play Sweden and Spain in their last two group matches.

They beat minnows Malta only 1-0 before taking 74 minutes to find the net against Faroe Islands, who are 109th in the Fifa world rankings, going on to win 3-0.

The concern is that Romania's strength should be in attack, where they can call on Florin Andone, George Puscas and Claudiu Keseru.

The trio were adequate against the Faroes but Norway will present a tougher challenge. The Scandinavians have taken points off Spain and Sweden and boast plenty of exciting talent.

Martin Odegaard looked at his very best against Spain while King can always be relied upon for goals. Sander Berge is a reported target for Napoli and goalkeeper Rune Jarstein is among the best in the Bundesliga.

That spine makes Norway, who need to win all three remaining group games to defy 6-1 qualification quotes, look a solid draw-no-bet selection.

Spain travel to Sweden in Group F's headline fixture on Tuesday and it may be worth taking a chance on Mikel Oyarzabal in the first goalscorer market.

He failed to make an impact against Norway but his form at club level, where he has four goals and two assists in La Liga for Real Sociedad this season, makes the 5-1 about him breaking the deadlock appealing.

Finland's qualification hopes stalled after a 4-1 defeat to Bosnia & Herzegovina but they are still in pole position for second spot in Group J.

Markku Kanerva set up his side with two strikers in the reverse fixture with Armenia and that attacking mentality translated to a 2-0 win in Yerevan.

With Teemu Pukki and Joel Pohjanpalo, who bagged the consolation against Bosnia, available in the final third, they should have enough to beat Armenia on home soil and are worth backing at a shade of odds-on.
