Only the second game in the Championship for these teams and it's all to play for here at Carrow Road as Norwich City welcomes Preston North End. Check out this preview!

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Carabao Cup. That game, against Derby County, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Preston North End.

Norwich City form and stats

The home stadium (Carrow Road) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Norwich City it's been a house of straw as the last five games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?

It's back home for Norwich City, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Huddersfield Town away with the result 1-0. Adam Idah found the net in that victory. Prior to that, an away loss at Luton Town in the Carabao Cup.

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of D. Farke when Adam Idah scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 75th minute.

Last season, Norwich City's league statistics were 5 wins, 6 draws and 27 losses, resulting in a 20th position in the Premier League. Over these 38 matches they scored 26 goals and conceded 75. Playing at home last season Norwich City managed 4-3-12 (win-draw-lost) with 19 goals and 37 conceded.

Preston North End form and stats

Preston are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 0-0 draw at Derby County (placed 22nd). The game before that, in the Championship, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Swansea City.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Preston when being an outsider away as they are today, we find one match with the visitors losing one time, drawing zero and winning zero games.

Let's have a look at how Preston North End performed last season in the Championship: They landed a 9th position in the league table after playing out 18 victories, 12 draws and 16 defeats. In total they scored 59 and conceded 54 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 8 and lost 9 with 20/25 goals scored/conceded.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Norwich won four games, three matches ended with a draw and Preston North End has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / seven
