Norwich City - Stoke City betting tips and odds

Betting odds can be illusive at times and Stoke City are more than capable of pulling an upset. However, Norwich City should have a clear path to victory if they stick to the plan.

It would be a minor miracle for Stoke City to win at Norwich, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 3.93 price on most online sportsbooks.

Norwich are coming on the back of a poor performance at Rotherham United. Although the betting odds implied their victory was the most likely outcome, they fell behind in the first half and never managed to equalise.

With 4.11 odds to win in the previous round, most of us expected The Potters to at least put in a good fight. They kept up with their opponents for more than half the game, but their defences completely crumbled in the second half, which resulted in a 0:2 home defeat.

The home team’s tendency to see their defence crumble under the pressure of away games is worrying – they conceded more than 5 times over the previous 3 away games. The fact that they’re at Carrow Road this Saturday makes things easier for them, but not by a lot.

The latest example of a clash between these two sides we have is from last season when Norwich City managed to walk away with a solid victory and a 2+ goal difference. If the 1.92 betting odds for a home win are to be believed, most bookies are expecting them to repeat that success.

This Saturday, both teams will have a full roster available to them, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.85, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
