Burnley
Match Time & Date:

16:00
Prediction: 2-1
Norwich
After holding Leicester City to a 2-2 draw, Burnley will be aiming to return to winning ways when they host Norwich City to their Turf Moor. The Clarets’ performances are much better than the results, and they will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways. All Stephens, Roberts, and Long remain in the treatment room, while Cornet should be fit for the match despite limping off with injury in the King Power Stadium clash.
The Canaries, on the other hand, are on a 16-game losing run in the Premier League, and given their anything but good display in a 2-0 loss to hit-by-injuries Everton, away win should not be considered. Key attacker Teemu Pukki has been struggling to find his best form, which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on the hosts. All Cantwell, Zimmermann, and Byram are out of contention with injuries for the newcomers.
Highlighted Player (Chris Wood):
Chris Wood is a New Zealand international who was born on 7 December, 1991. Wood plays as a striker and he began his senior career at Waikato FC. In 2009 he joined West Bromwich Albion, but he played no more than 21 league games for the Baggies.

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.
