Norwich welcome West Bromwich Albion for a clash in the Championship at Carrow Road this coming Saturday. It finished 1-1 when Norwich last played West Bromwich Albion and the best betting odds on yet another draw at full-time with the bookies are at 3.50.

Norwich are chasing the first place in the Championship after collecting 19 points from their initial nine encounters. West Bromwich Albion trail them on nine points after nine rounds, sitting as number 20 in the table.

There has been a real flow of goals lately at both ends of the pitch for West Bromwich Albion in recent games. They both scored and conceded in their last seven matches on the bounce, making this scenario worth considering at current prices with the bookmakers.

Norwich scored 17 while allowing ten goals against in the past ten matches. They claimed three clean sheets on the way.

When it comes to goal-scoring West Bromwich Albion are not the most prolific side. They scored a sustainable 18 times in their previous ten matches, making it 1.8 goals per game. They conceded 13 goals for an average of 1.3 a game, achieving a clean sheet in two of these matches.

Norwich vs West Bromwich Albion Prediction

In their last three outings, Norwich won 1-2 against Birmingham, beat Coventry by 3-0 and hammered Bristol City 3-2. Norwich showed little mercy in their past six matches at the Carrow Road, of which they won five and drew once. Going undefeated, they hit the target 15 times, while letting in five themselves.

Going into the season as a title candidate, Norwich are currently on track to fulfill the expectations.

In their last three matches, West Bromwich Albion drew 1-1 with Wigan, drew 1-1 with Burnley and lost 2-3 against Birmingham. West Bromwich Albion managed to win just once in their past six away games in the Championship. On top of winning once they also drew three as well as losing two, while scoring ten time and letting in six.

West Bromwich Albion entered the season hunting for a title, however they find themselves far off track at this stage.

While tempted to go along with the straight away win for West Bromwich Albion, we eventually settled for a more cautious approach. The double-chance or the draw-no-bet is our preferred choice against Norwich.

Norwich showed very little mercy in their last two games against teams from the bottom six. They claimed six points and two wins after scoring five goals and conceding one. No other side in the Championship claimed as many points against teams from the bottom.

Tips

Double Chance: 1X

While we don't believe in the away win, we don't quite trust Norwich to grab a win. We prefer a cautious bet on the visitors, either the double-chance or the draw-no-bet solution against West Bromwich Albion.

Under 2.5

For whatever reason, West Bromwich Albion and Norwich usually find goals tough to come by, when facing each other, and history makes under 2.5 goals our call here.

BTTS: Yes

It seems both West Bromwich Albion and Norwich have some issues concerning their defence, as they seem to find themselves on the receiving end a bit too often lately. We believe the trend continues this coming Saturday, and we are rooting for goals.

Norwich to win

Are Norwich good enough currently to justify the prices with the bookies, when they face West Bromwich Albion at Carrow Road? It could be tight, but considering form and match history, we believe the home side represents the best betting option.
