Norwich vs Watford Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

Prediction published on 31/12/2022, 13:00 by Devesh Jaganath | Modified on 31/12/2022 at 13:30 in Championship Predictions

Norwich will start the New year by hosting Watford at Carrow Road on Monday evening. Following the departure of Dean Smith, the hosts will be hoping for a new manager bounce in their performances heading into 2023. Interim bosses Alan Russell and Steve Weaver saw their side come away with a point in their last match against Reading after Adam Idah's goal was canceled out by a late penalty from Andy Carrol. Norwich is currently in 7th place in the league, with 36 points in their 25 matches. Slaven Bilic has only been in charge of Watford for 15 games this season, but his team's recent poor form has already brought up question marks over his future. With the recent poor performances from the likes of themselves and Blackburn, the race for the playoff spots has been knocked wide open, with only four points separating the 3rd and 13th-placed teams in the league.

Norwich is the favourite in this match, with odds of 1.8 on most bookies. According to the odds, a win for Watford is the outside result returning as much as 3.8, while a draw is priced at 3.6. The odds make for interesting reading, as recent stats indicate that Norwich may not be in the type of form that is represented by such a short price. Watford has been the dominant side in this fixture, and their price may resemble great value for punters who fancy them. This is a very close game, and both teams scoring seems to be the best value bet returning 1.8 from most of the bookmakers.

Norwich - Watford: Form Analysis

After three defeats in their previous four, Norwich fans may have been happy with the draw in the last match and will be expecting their side to build on that performance going forward. Their record includes ten wins, six draws, and nine losses this term. They are level on points with Middlesbrough in 6th and just one point behind their opponents. Their form at home has been poor of late, and they head into this encounter without a win in their last four at Carrow Road. The Canaries will hope that they can overcome a Watford side that has gotten the best of them in this fixture in the recent past. Watford remained in the top six after their disappointing 4-0 defeat to Swansea in midweek, which was the second of two defeats in under a week. Watford has only won 1 of their last five league matches and is on 37 points this term with ten wins, seven draws, and eight losses. They have been the superior side in this fixture, winning four of the last encounters, the most recent of which came in the reverse fixture in October, which they won by two goals to one. Despite both teams' poor form coming into this match, they will both be going all out for the win in hopes of taking a step closer to securing a playoff spot.

Norwich & Watford Squad Analysis

Norwich has one main injury to deal with ahead of this match. Todd Cantwell is expected to miss out and may remain out for a few weeks. Isaac Hayden and Onel Hernandez seem the most likely to step into midfield, while Weaver and Russel will be available if needed. Watford has a few high-profile players missing for this encounter, with Hamza Choudhury and Joao Pedro both ruled out for the next few weeks. Hassane Kamara will also be unavailable for Bilic, who is still serving his suspension after this red card against Millwall.

Our Norwich vs Watford Prediction

Watford has been the superior team in this fixture in recent years and is the marginal favourite. Both sides have been playing well below their best and come into this match with poor records over the last five games. Under new management, Norwich could be anything right now, and their fans will be keen to see what the new bosses change to get their side back on track. This is a match that could go either way with both sides pushing for a win. It's too close to call a winner, but both sides should create and finish a few chances. Our Norwich v Watford prediction is for both teams to score.
