Norwich City form and stats

Perfect Championship season at home so far for Norwich City 2 wins from 2 appearances.

Norwich lost their last game at Rotherham United (placed 20th) after a 1-2 scoreline. The first defeat after going unbeaten through four league games. Sara (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 8.43/10. Sara hit six key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 55 successful passes (of 65 total).

Before that, a fine away win at Bristol City. A Carabao Cup game. The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Norwich City handle that role? We have found 10 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats.

Goals are flowing in this club's league games, with 5 in a row having three or more goals (over 2.5).

The match schedule is unforgiving for Norwich as they have a new game in only four days, a Championship match thankfully also at home. Leicester City are visiting.

Early season league goal statistics from Norwich City's 2 home games: {5 goals}, 2 conceded.

Stoke City form and stats

No Championship points yet away for Stoke City, from their first 2 matches.

Stoke City aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 217 league minutes without a goal. Vidigal was the last player to find the net.

Stoke City's previous game was their home loss versus Preston North End (0-2). Midfielder Laurent was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.14. Laurent hit one key pass and had 30 successful passes (of 32 total).

Before that game, the win at home against Rotherham United in the Carabao Cup (6-1). Stoke City are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. From a total of 5 matches.

The schedule is very tough for Stoke now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Championship game at Huddersfield Town is waiting in only four days.

It's early days yet, but Stoke City has scored 0 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Norwich City have avoided a loss in the last 5 games (3-2-0) against Stoke City.
