Norwich vs Leeds Prediction & Betting Tips (21 October)

This Saturday afternoon, Norwich hosts Leeds United for the 12th day of the Championship. The locals had started their season well with 4 games without defeat, 3 wins and a draw before losing to Rotherham 2-1 at the start of September. After turning things around at home against Stoke the following week with a 1-0 victory, they conceded two consecutive defeats against Leicester 0-2 and Plymouth 6-2, in a one-sided match. Since then, Norwich has struggled to get back to winning ways and has had two unsuccessful matches against Swansea, losing 2-1, and recently against Coventry, 1-1. The objective will therefore be, for the locals, to regain confidence after an international break which will probably have allowed the players to take a step back from the start of the season.

At home, they should defend their colors and score at least one goal. For Leeds, the season is a little better: only 2 defeats in 11 matches, with a total of 19 points on the clock which allows them to reach the Top 5 of the Championship. Eliminated from the EFL Cup, Leeds must now focus on a potential rise to the elite next season. For now 2 games 2 victories, Leeds have kept the confidence accumulated since the start of the season and could have a good match.

High-flying Norwich are one of the most exciting sides to watch in the Championship at the moment, as they have both scored and conceded during the same 90 minutes in 14 of their previous 17 matches. Given that Leeds have done the same in seven of their last eight away games at this level, it would come as a bit of a surprise were either keeper to pitch a shutout.
