Cardiff vs Norwich Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Steve Ashfield | in Championship Predictions
Quick check of the calendar and the year ends in an even number. That means it's a promotion challenge beginning for Norwich City who travel to Cardiff City for their opening fixture back in the Championship. The pattern is that Norwich win the Championship but then immediately get relegated. They're like Fulham but they do the promotion bit in seasons that start in an odd numbered year. The dream of both clubs is that next season we get to see Norwich v Fulham but in the Premier League, it says a lot those two clubs haven't had a league fixture since 2018. Norwch have won the Championship the last two times they have played in this division. Those two title wins saw them win 56 games and score 168 goals. The last two seasons in the Premier League have seen them win 10 games and score 49 goals. They still have Teemu Pukki but have only made two signings, including Gabriel Sara from Brazilian side Serie A.
Cardiff City finished in the Championship last season. They were 16 points above the drop zone but 22 behind the final promotion play-off position. That was disappointing after two top ten finishes and the play-offs in 2020/21. Last season was an inconsistent one with bad runs followed by good ones that put them close to a play-off position. They ended the season with one win in their last six league fixtures, winning only at relegated Derby on the last day of their season. They had hoped to sign Gareth Bale in the summer but he chose LA instead. They've still been busy though with the number of new players already in double figures as is the number who have left. They aren't going to gel overnight though and don't look that strong up front. Back Norwich to get the win against a side that is very much work in progress.
