The club has also brought in fellow Norwegian international Julie Blakstad and young Swedish talents Matilda Nilden and Hanna Wijk.
The mouth-watering clash takes place at London’s biggest club stadium – with tickets priced at just £15 for adults, £5 juniors and Premium experiences from £25 – and will be an enjoyable occasion for all the family.
