Our prediction for this Championship match:
All eyes will be on the Hawthorns when West Bromwich Albion and Norwich City lock horns in the Championship round 16. WBA defeated Hull City on the road before the international break, but they do not want to stop now. All Gianluca Frabotta, Semi Ajayi, Patrick McNair, Kyle Bartley, and Daryl Dike are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Canaries, on the other hand, are on a three-game losing run in the English second tier. As Norwich have been struggling in front of goal in recent weeks, we are tempted to place our bets on West Brom this time out. In their last encounter at the Hawthorns WBA defeated Norwich 1-0, with Brandon Thomas-Asante scoring the only goal of the match. The likes of Gabe Forsyth, Josh Sargent, Marcelino Nunez, Liam Gibbs, Angus Gunn, Onel Hernandez, and Ashley Barnes are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team.
