Norwich City and Burnley lock horns in EFL Championship on Sunday

The EFL Championship returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Norwich City and Burnley go head-to-head at Carrow Road on Sunday. Scott Parker’s men head into the weekend on a seven-game unbeaten run and will be looking to keep the juggernaut rolling.

Norwich City failed to return to winning ways on Tuesday when they were held to a goalless draw by bottom dwellers Portsmouth at Fratton Park.

This followed a somewhat disappointing 3-0 defeat at the hands of Queens Park Rangers on December 7 which saw their run of two consecutive victories come to an end.

Norwich City have picked up 26 points from their 20 Championship matches to sit 12th in the table but could move into ninth place with a win this weekend.

Like this weekend’s hosts, Burnley were involved in a share of the spoils last time out when they played out a goalless draw with Derby County at Turf Moor.

Before that, Parker’s men saw their four-game winning streak come to an end on December 6 when they were held to a 1-1 draw by Middlesbrough on home turf.

Burnley have picked up 38 points from their 20 Championship matches to sit fourth in the standings, seven points off league leaders Sheffield United.


Norwich City vs Burnley Head-To-Head and Key Numbers

  • With 23 wins from the last 47 meetings between the sides, Burnley boast a superior record in the history of this fixture.
  • Norwich City have picked up 16 wins in that time, while the spoils have been shared on eight occasions.
  • Burnley are unbeaten in seven of their last eight away matches, picking up four wins and three draws since the start of September.
  • Norwich City have lost just one of their 10 competitive home games this season while claiming five wins and four draws so far.

Norwich City vs Burnley Prediction

Burnley have enjoyed a solid campaign so far as they look to secure an immediate return to the English top flight. While home advantage gives Norwich a slight edge, we are backing Parker’s men to come away with a narrow victory.

Prediction: Norwich City 1-2 Burnley
