It's the final round of Euro 2024 qualifiers as Scotland wrap up what has been a successful campaign.
Steve Clarke's men had already qualified prior to Thursday night's lacklustre showing in Georgia and Sunday night, they'll get to celebrate this with supporters.
Top spot now looks out the equation after the results in midweek, meaning the players and supporters can enjoy the evening.
That said, Clarke will be pretty keen to end this winless run which now stretches to four games heading into this one.
Defensive problems were highlighted in midweek with four of the back five (defenders and keeper) likely not to be in Clarke's thinking when it comes to picking his first XI at next summer's championships.
However, Lawrence Shankland - who spared the blushes with a late headed goal on Thursday - should very much come into the fold and it'd be no surprise to see him in from the start for this one.
For Norway, they will be looking to avenge the fact that Scotland beat them to qualification, mainly due to that stunning turnaround in the result in Oslo last summer.
Erling Haaland came off the bench in their 2-0 win over the Faroe Islands in midweek and will no doubt start here - providing he recovers from a minor ankle injury.

Odds correct at time of writing but are subject to change
Erling Haaland is a fitness concern having picked up an ankle knock on Thursday night.
He was given a rest for the first 45 minutes against the Faroes in midweek, though will be disappointed not to get on the scoresheet in a goalless second period.
That Man City man wouldn't have bothered turning up if he was going to be left out of both games so - providing he's fit - he'll lead the line here.
Scotland's fragmented defence was there for all to see and Haaland can capitalise with at least a couple of efforts at goal.
Lawrence Shankland is easily the best finisher in the current squad and showed his quality with that late equaliser.
He'll be desperately unlucky if not in from the start on Sunday, and he can make his presence felt again.
