Huddersfield vs Norwich Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 26th August 2023

Norwich visit John Smith's Stadium on Saturday for a Championship fixture with home side Huddersfield.

A glance at the Championship table reveals that the current difference between the teams is six points and 18 places.

Huddersfield have only one point on their account at the moment, as they have only managed to draw once in three rounds of the season. Norwich account for seven points from three games, earning them a place as number 3 in the table.

Though we are still in the early days of the Championship campaign, Norwich have so far surpassed expectations, but the question is whether they can keep riding the wave against Huddersfield and record another good performance.

Huddersfield only average a modest 1.3 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 13 goals. They also conceded 12 for an average of 1.2 per game. They kept their opponents from scoring two times.

Norwich hit the target 14 times in the last ten outings, which creates an average of 1.4 goals a game. They conceded 1.8 goals per match for a total of 18 goals, while claiming two clean sheets as well.

It finished all square when Huddersfield last faced Norwich. With both denying to back down, the scoreboard said 1-1 in the end. The best betting odds on a draw at full-time with the bookies are at 12/5.

Huddersfield vs Norwich Prediction

Huddersfield Form

In their last three matches, Huddersfield lost 2-3 against Middlesbrough, 0-1 against Leicester and drew 1-1 with Middlesbrough. Huddersfield won three of their previous six matches at John Smith's Stadium in the Championship. They drew two and suffered one defeats, scoring ten goals to six against.

A top half finish is the dream target for Huddersfield, although keeping their Championship status for another season has to be the priority.

Norwich Form

Norwich look well suited to take on any opponent with seven points to show off from three matches. They started off drawing 4-4 with Southampton, before downing first Queens P.R. by 0-1, then Millwall in a 3-1 win. In their last six Championship away matches, Norwich failed to win more than once. In stead, they've drawn three and lost two, scoring nine while also conceding 12 times.

A top half finish is the dream for Huddersfield, but neutral spectators have them down for a season in the lower end of the Championship.

Form looks slightly more in favour of Norwich than odds suggests. We believe the bookmakers have placed a little too much faith in Huddersfield and we like the prices on offer for the away win.
