Our prediction for this Championship match:
Sunday’s football game between Norwich City and Blackburn Rovers will bring down the curtain on day 15 of the new Championship campaign. The Canaries suffered yet another dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three league matches, but they are surely capable of matching the Riversiders at their Carrow Road. Chile midfielder Marcelino Nunez is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while all Angus Gunn, Ashley Barnes, Josh Sargent, Jakob Sorensen, and Grant Hanley remain in the recovery room.
Blackburn, on the other hand, failed to shock Chelsea in the EFL Cup last 16 and given their difficulties on the road, we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing more than one point from Saturday’s showdown. Tyrhus Dolan returns to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in the Stamford Bridge clash, whereas all Lewis Travis, Aynsley Pears, Ryan Hedges, and Sam Gallagher continue to miss out with injuries.
Highlighted Team (Norwich):
After spending only one season in the Premier League, Norwich City dropped to the Championship at the end of the 2015/2016 campaign. Norwich City are located in Norwich, Norfolk and they welcome their rivals at Carrow Road.
The stadium was built and opened in 1935 and the capacity of the venues is 27,137 (all-seater). However the stadium’s record attendance is 43,984. The Canaries have won two League Cup trophies (1973, 1975) and their main rivals are Ipswich Town. The two teams have been facing each other in the East Anglian Derby since 1902.
The colour of Norwich City’s home kit is yellow and green and that is the main reason why they are known as the Canaries. The likes of Kevin Keeland, Ian Culverhouse, Steve Bruce, Duncan Forbes, Mark Bowen, Darren Huckerby, Ian Crook, Martin Peters, Darren Eadier, Chris Sutton and Iwan Roberts are notable footballers who played for the Carrow Road outfit in the past.
