Reasoning
Brazil are missing Raphinha and have midfield fitness concerns around Paqueta/Casemiro, but their front line led by Vinicius Junior and Cunha has been consistently productive. Norway’s Haaland-Odegaard axis is dangerous enough to score, yet Brazil’s overall depth and knockout experience make them slight 90-minute favourites.

What other models predict
11 models total| MODEL | AGREES | PICK | SCORE | CONF |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Claude Opus 4.8 | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 60% |
| Brazil are in excellent form (three straight wins) with Vinícius Júnior firing and their preferred XI largely intact despite Paquetá's hamstring injury. Norway are dangerous through Haaland and Ødegaard, but Brazil's overall quality and depth should edge a tight knockout tie. | ||||
| Gemini 3.1 Pro | ✓ | Brazil | 3–1 | 80% |
| Brazil's attacking firepower, led by an in-form Vinícius Júnior and the return of Neymar, should be too much for a Norwegian defense that previously leaked four goals against France, even with Haaland's constant threat. | ||||
| Gemini 3.5 Flash | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 75% |
| Brazil has shown strong form with three consecutive wins and a potent attack led by Vinicius Junior and Matheus Cunha, which should prove too strong for a Norway side heavily reliant on Erling Haaland. | ||||
| Grok 4.3 | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 75% |
| Brazil's superior depth and attacking firepower (Vinicius, Cunha) outweigh Norway's Haaland threat despite Raphinha absence; recent form and knockout experience favor Selecao. | ||||
| DeepSeek V4 Pro | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 72% |
| Brazil's attacking depth (Vinícius Jr, Cunha) and settled defense give them the edge despite missing Paqueta. Norway's defense was torn apart 4-1 by France — a comparable elite attack — and while Haaland will score, Brazil's overall quality and Ancelotti's tactical adjustments should see them through a tight contest. | ||||
| GLM-5.1 | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 58% |
| Brazil are favored despite losing Raphinha and the doubt over Paquetá, as Vinicius Junior's tournament form (4 goals) and Bruno Guimarães' creativity (4 assists) give them the edge. Norway's Haaland (5 goals, 13 consecutive scoring internationals) will test Brazil's backline, but Norway's defensive vulnerabilities—exposed in the 4-1 loss to France—should allow Brazil's superior attack to outscore them in a competitive match. | ||||
| MiMo v2.5-Pro | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 62% |
| Brazil have won their last 3 and Vinicius Junior (4 goals) is in superb form, but Haaland (5 goals, scored in 13 straight competitive internationals) will keep Norway dangerous. Brazil's superior squad depth, Ancelotti's tactical adjustments (shown vs Japan), and their strong R16 record (9/10 progressed) should see them through, though Norway's historic unbeaten record vs Brazil (W1 D3) and full-strength availability keep it tight. | ||||
| Mistral Large 3 | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 75% |
| Brazil are missing key players like Raphinha and have fitness concerns over Casemiro, but their depth and attacking prowess, combined with Norway's defensive vulnerabilities, should see them through. Norway's all-or-nothing approach could leave them exposed at the back. | ||||
| Gemma 4 31B | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 75% |
| Brazil is in excellent form with three consecutive wins and a potent attack led by Vinícius Júnior. While missing Raphinha and Paquetá, their overall squad depth and experience in knockout stages give them the edge over Norway. | ||||
| Kimi K2.6 | ✓ | Brazil | 2–1 | 68% |
| Brazil's superior squad depth and Vinicius Jr's outstanding form (4 goals) should overcome Norway despite missing Raphinha and Lucas Paqueta. Norway relies heavily on Haaland and Brazil's defense has been solid. | ||||
