LiontipsCanada - Norway. Betting Tip (cf 1.64) and bets on the World Cup match
Command Analysis
Canada performed superbly in the group stage of the World Cup and quite expectedly reached the playoffs from first place in Group B. In the first round, the team faced off against a far from serious opponent in the United States. The Americans assembled a weak squad and were not in the best shape, which the leafs successfully took advantage of and won a dry victory (4-0). Goalkeeper Greaves played superbly, deflecting 34 shots and making a shutout.
In the semifinals, the Canadians faced a much more powerful opponent, Finland. After the successful completion of the first period, the national team seemed to relax and in the second period made only three shots at Suomi's goal and also missed three goals, allowing the Finns to take a significant advantage. In the final twenty minutes, Canada seriously increased its attack, but was unable to make a comeback, and in the end was defeated with a score of 2:4. This time Greaves did not meet the expectations of the fans, reflecting only 80% of the shots.
Norway surprised all hockey fans with its performance at this World Championship. The team consistently beat clear favorites Sweden and the Czech Republic in the group stage, and was one step away from a sensational victory over Canada, but did not hold the advantage and suffered an embarrassing defeat in overtime.
In the quarterfinals, the national team fought Latvia and did not allow the opponent to realize his attack from the word at all, winning a dry victory (2:0), which allowed him to reach the semifinals for the first time since 1951. Goalkeeper Haukellan made a huge contribution to such a successful result, deflecting 35 shots. However, the success of the Norwegians came to an end. Next, the team fought with the main favorite of the tournament, Switzerland, and suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 0:6.

Tip and bets
Norway has already jumped over its head and is unlikely to be able to compete for bronze. Still, you definitely shouldn't write off the team. Recall that in the group stage, the national teams had a face-to-face match, in which Canada experienced great difficulties and was one step away from defeat. We believe that the leafs will definitely win, but they are unlikely to be able to defeat the Norwegians, so we are betting on the advantage of a clear outsider.
Our betting tip is that Norway will win with a handicap of (+3.5) goals in 1.64
