Norwich City - Cardiff City predictions

It’s easy to point out Norwich City as the clear favourites, but we wouldn’t call this match completely one-sided. The hosts are definitely more likely to win between the two, but a tie game is another possibility. An away win would be quite a surprise, but we’ve seen bigger upsets.

Cardiff City will have little to hope for in this match. 4.80 betting odds on them winning paint a pretty clear picture and from this standpoint there is little doubt in regard to the outcome of this clash.

The Canaries are coming off from a 0:0 draw in an away game at Middlesbrough . Betting predictions for that game were heavily in their opponents’ favour, though, so the fact that they pulled off a draw both at half time and as the final result is a success, relatively speaking.

Cardiff’s latest Championship match ended in disappointment. A draw against West Bromwich Albion doesn’t sound too bad on paper, but we have to remember that top online bookies considered them favourites at odds of 2.18. Besides, it was a home game for them.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and The Canaries have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

With a loss to Cardiff on the record, the home team’s status of clear favourites is brought into question. They lost a Championship match earlier in the season, which came as a surprise to bookies and punters alike.

Saturday's match will see both teams at full strength, able to utilize all their players.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 1.
