Prediction: Norwich City to win 2-0
Best Odds: 13/2
Norwich City and Hull City will lock horns with each other in the Championship this coming weekend. The match between the Canaries and the Tigers will be held at Carrow Road and is scheduled to kick off at 3pm UK time on Saturday.
Norwich City
Norwich City are one of the biggest clubs in the Championship who regularly challenge for the top six. The Canaries had a spell in the Premier League as well, but last season they were really bad. Norwich ended as low as 13th in the Championship table last season and were never really in the running for the playoffs.
The Canaries will be determined to challenge for the automatic promotion spots in the Championship table this season. The race for promotion does appear to be open this campaign, and under manager David Wagner, the Carrow Road faithful will be optimistic about a successful season.
Norwich have been quite busy in the summer transfer window. Among the players have signed are Christian Fassnacht, Borja Sainz, Shane Duffy and Jack Stacey.
Team News:
Tim Krul has lost his place in the Norwich City starting lineup. Angus Gunn is set to start for the Canaries between the posts. Shane Duffy, Ben Gibson and Max Aarons will start in defence for the home team. Milot Rashica and Kenny McLean will start in midfield, while Ashley Barnes and Josh Sargent could play in a two-man attack.
Hull City
Hull City are a big club who were playing in the Premier League not so long ago, but now they have become also-rans in the Championship. The Tigers finsihed as low as 15th in the Championship table last season, and it is hard to see them challenge for the top six spots in the standings this time around.
Liam Rosenior has been in charge of Hull City since November 2022, and he has done well at the Tigers. It will be interesting to see whether he is able to take the next step and push Hull to finish in the top 10 of the Championship table this season.
Hull have been quite busy in the summer transfer window so far. The Tigers have signed Jason Lokilo, Xavier Simons, Liam Delap and Ruben Vinagre.
Team News:
Matt Ingram will be in goal for Hull City against Norwich City at Carrow Road in the Championship this coming weekend. Lewie Coyle, Alfie Jones and Sean McLoughlin will be in defence. Ozan Tufan, Greg Docherty and Adama Traore will start in midfield. Liam Delap is likely to start for Hull.
