Preston North End - Norwich City betting tips and odds

The visitors understand the difficulty of the task at hand. To beat Preston North End on their own turf would be a major feat, and it is always a tough challenge.

Norwich City are regarded as favourites, but that doesn’t mean they can relax. With an almost negligible difference in the perceived strength of these two teams, sub-standard play is a recipe for disaster.

Preston will be hoping to notch another win after recording a rather surprising Stoke City away win in the Championship. They held pretty well for the first 45 minutes and pushed an important step forward after the break to record a narrow victory which will be a huge boost for their Saturday fixture.

The Canaries are coming off of a disappointing 0:1 loss in the previous round. The first half of that match was one long stalemate, but their opponents Watford broke the tie later on.

The Lilywhites fans at Deepdale Stadium have seen a lot of concessions lately – 7 in the previous three matches. Hopefully, we’ll see some better play from their defenders.

With an away win priced at 2.50, plenty of Championship betting predictions are expecting The Canaries to win the day. However, they played against Preston as the home team earlier in the season and lost despite their status as favourites.

With no players out due to injury or suspension, both teams will have their full lineups ready for a thrilling showdown.

A confirmed Under 2.5 Goals market seems like a foregone conclusion for this particular match. The only thing to do now is to decide whether the relatively short 1.73 odds are worth your time. We would say they are because this bet manages to have real betting value as well.
