Our prediction for this Championship match:
All eyes will be on Carrow Road when Norwich City and Ipswich Town lock horns at Carrow Road in Saturday’s matinee. Norwich City aim to make amends for a 3-1 loss to Leicester City and you should know that they are eyeing their seventh consecutive win in front of home fans. All Jakob Sorensen, Dimitris Giannoulis, Onel Hernandez, and Jon Rowe remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The Tractor Boys, on the other hand, proved their worth in a come-from-behind win over Southampton. Ipswich looked sharp in front of goal in the Portman Road triumph and given Norwich’s attacking potential at home ground, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. Both Jeremy Sarmiento and Nathan Broadhead are pushing for recalls to the starting XI after the duo helped the Tractor Boys make a comeback against the Saints. Kieffer Moore faces race against the clock to be fit for Saturday’s clash.
