However, following their first-leg victory in Oslo, they require only a draw to clinch qualification for France next summer. Previous meetings • László Kleinheisler scored on his debut as Hungary won 1-0 in the first leg in Norway. • In the last Budapest encounter between the teams, Norway beat Hungary 2-0 in a November 2012 friendly. Håvard Nielsen and Mohammed Abdellaoue scored the goals. • Hungary's home record against Norway is W3 D3 L2, but they are without a victory in their five most recent home matches with the Nordic side (D3 L2). Form guide • Hungary are unbeaten in their last four competitive home games (W2 D2); Norway have lost two of their last three away from home. • Norway were defeated in their only previous EURO play-off, missing out on a place at UEFA EURO 2004 with a 5-1 aggregate reverse to Spain. • Norway also lost their sole FIFA World Cup play-off, 2-0 on aggregate to the Czech Republic, to sit out the 2006 finals. • Hungary are featuring in a UEFA European Championship play-off for the first time. They contested the 1998 World Cup play-offs but crashed out 12-1 on aggregate to Yugoslavia. Disciplinary • Hungary's Zoltán Gera is suspended following his booking in the first leg.
