To the delight of football fans across the world - Erling Haaland is back in action this Thursday.

However, on this occasion, he has swapped the sky blue jersey of Manchester City for the dark red of his nation Norway.

He and his countrymen are overwhelming 1/6 favourites to beat Cyprus away from home in their European Qualifier - and for those predicting Haaland to play a starring role - Sky Bet are offering multiple 'Price Boosts' that involve the City striker.

Erling Haaland boosted to 9/2 to score a header, and to odds of 11/1 to bag a hat-trick Thursday

The first price boost is for 'Haaland to score a header' - which has been boosted from 4/1 to 9/2. Nine of Haaland's 44 goals in the Premier League to date have come via his head.

The second price boost is 'Haaland to score a hat-trick' at 11/1 - a bet which has had its odds enhanced from 9/1.

Haaland has the most hat-tricks of any active player in the Premier League with five, one of which has come this season.

He is ahead of both Mohamed Salah and Son Heung-min who are joint-second among active players with four. For reference, Salah has 196 more Premier League appearances than Haaland, while Heung-min has 233 more than the Norwegian.

Haaland went very close to scoring three against Cyprus in June, with the star striker bagging a brace inside 60 minutes before being substituted off prior to the final whistle.
