Norwich vs Leeds Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

Prediction published on 19/10/2023, 11:56  by Kennedy Kechula in Championship Predictions

Norwich will seek to get back to winning ways when they host Leeds United on Saturday in the English Championship. After 11 rounds of play, the two teams are separated by two points with Leeds in fifth sitting above seventh-placed Norwich. Norwich are having a difficult time at the moment and this has resulted in them dropping out of the top six. David Wagner’s men have won only one of their last six matches and have lost four times. Three of those defeats have come in the league where they have racked up 17 points. Norwich, who have won five of their 11 matches, sit a point outside of the playoff places. The Canaries went into the international break without winning any of their last two matches. They responded to a 2-1 loss away to Swansea by holding Coventry to a 1-1 draw. After two back-to-back away trips, Norwich will be happy to return back home where they have been impeccable. Four of Norwich’s five victories have come with them as hosts.

Leeds United seem to have overcome their early season struggles and arrive for this match in superb shape. Daniel Farke’s men have won their last two matches which is the first time they have won back-to-back games this season. Leeds, who have won five matches, had to wait until matchday four to record their first league victory of the season. Since then, they have lost only once in seven league outings. They will now hope the recently ended international break hasn’t interfered with their momentum. Leeds have won three of the last four meetings with Norwich with the most recent encounter coming last year in the Premier League. The Whites were 2-1 winners at home against Bristol last time out.
