Norwich vs Watford Preview
All eyes will be on Carrow Road when Norwich and Watford face each other in a Championship clash. The Canaries ended their five-game losing run with a convincing 3-1 win over Charlton Athletic, giving them a welcome confidence boost. Paris Maghoma picked up a knock in that match, so Sam Field is pushing for a recall to the starting XI. Norwich have struggled defensively this season, conceding an average of 1.75 goals per home game and failing to keep a clean sheet in any of their last ten matches.
Watford, meanwhile, do not seem to be at their sharpest, having lost five of their last six league games. The Hornets produced just 0.16 xG in their 1-0 defeat to Wolverhampton, highlighting their attacking struggles. Changes are expected, with both Zemura and Maamma pushing for starting roles. Their away record is particularly worrying: Watford have lost all five of their recent away matches, scoring just 0.20 goals per game and failing to find the net in 80% of those outings.
Anyhow, Norwich to Win looks tempting against a Watford side struggling badly on the road. Under 3.5 goals is another option, given Watford’s lack of attacking output away from home, alongside Watford under 1.5 team goals stands out as the visitors average only 0.20 goals per away game.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday, 31 October 2026 at 12:30 in Carrow Road, Norwich.
