Crystal Palace vs Norwich Prediction & Betting tips
In the seventh round of the Premier League, Norwich City travels to London to take on Crystal Palace in the capital of England. Both teams had no obligations in the Carabao Cup this week and were therefore able to prepare optimally for Saturday’s game.
Crystal Palace:
Crystal Palace is twelfth in the Premier League and it is expected that The Eagles will also end up somewhere around this position this year. Roy Hodgson has a selection at his disposal with which he must at least maintain himself and that has also been shown in the first six games of the season. It’s not for nothing that Crystal Palace took eight points in those six games and only two of those duels were lost to the formation of Hodgson – that happened in the duels at Sheffield United (1-0) and Tottenham Hotspur (4-0).
Crystal Palace is still unbeaten this Premier League season in-house. The Londoners played a draw against Everton (0-0) at Selhurst Park, won against Aston Villa and shared the points with Wolverhampton Wanderers (1-1) last weekend. Crystal Palace seemed to grab three points against the Wolves for a long time, but goalkeeper Vicente Guaita was passed in the extra time by Wolverhampton-striker Diogo Jota. Acid for Crystal Palace, which had even surpassed Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United and Chelsea in a victory over Wolverhampton.
Norwich City:
PhD student Norwich City has proved to be very unpredictable this season. The best example of that came about last weekend when Norwich City lost 2-0 to Burnley, while The Canaries had won 3-2 a week earlier against champion Manchester City. Daniel Farke and his team don’t really have to play matches outside their own stadium this season: Norwich City played four times and lost all four games. The absolute low point was the 1-0 defeat in the Carabao Cup visiting League Two-club Crawley Town.
Last weekend, therefore, Norwich City lost 2-0 to Burnley and Burnley is a competitor of Norwich City, which is currently only two points above the relegation line. Norwich City takes sixteenth place in the Premier League after six games and The Canaries will look back on the first six games with mixed feelings. Of course it is nice if you treat Manchester City as a PhD candidate on a 3-2 defeat, but if you then fall behind in a 2-0 minute within a quarter of an hour on a visit to Burnley then you suddenly have little benefit from that victory over Manchester. City. By the way, goalkeepers Tim Krul and Ralf Fährmann were injured at Norwich City this week, but it is expected that at least Krul will be fit again for the Crystal Palace duel. A good thing too, because otherwise Farke would have to call on third goalkeeper Michael McGovern.
