Norwich City - Preston North End predictions

Kickoff starts at 16:00 on 09/12/2023 played @ Carrow Road refereed by Oliver Langford

Though Norwich City are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

The odds are stacked heavily against Preston North End here, and we can’t see them winning this match. Norwich City are heavily favoured by most betting predictions – so much so that an away bet is priced at around 4.20.

The Canaries were fighting an uphill battle against Bristol City in the previous round, which was especially clear during half-time. However, they proceeded to equalize and then take the lead in the later stages of the game, resulting in a stunning 1:2 away win.

The away team lost their previous Championship engagement quite badly, recording a 0:2 defeat on home ground. The betting odds implied that the two teams were quite evenly matched, and they hit a stalemate that lasted until the second half. The poor showing towards the end doesn’t look good for Preston North End, though.

Norwich City gans are hoping for better defensive performance then what they’ve seen in away games. The previous three matches featured 6 conceded goals.

Results and standings notwithstanding, Preston North End have run into some defensive issues in this stretch of the Championship. In the past 3 matches, they allowed more than 5 goals to their opponents, which may be cause for concern for their supporters.

As far as the recent history of this matchup goes, the records show a decisive victory by Norwich City last season. They even secured a solid lead, which is part of the reason most bookies consider them to be the favourites in this matchup.

With no injuries or suspensions to deal with, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
