Really excited about the match, Norway has a considerable disadvantage on the defensive side against Brazil. If Vinicius and co. up front are in form, that will be a problem. On the other hand, Brazil haven't been impressive themselves defensively in the tournament so far, this match is more even than many would think, at least on paper. Norway, on the whole, are a less balanced side. Both have a stable midfield with plenty of playmaker types.

Solbakken could start Bobb on the right wing, the main issue with that is the defensive part, Sørloth is big and strong and push home and defend quite well. 

Ryerson starting is good news for Norway, he's by far the best man on the RB position, and the best player in the back-four by quite a margin. Corners could be dangerous for Brazil if Sørloth, Haaland, and Berge all start, since they're all around 195 centimeters tall and really good with headers, add to Ajer who is nearly two meters tall.
