Norwich City are set to play Millwall at Carrow Road on Friday in the EFL Championship.
Norwich City come into this game on the back of a 2-1 win over Danny Schofield's Huddersfield Town in their most recent game. First-half goals from American attacker Josh Sargent and Luxembourg international Danel Sinani sealed the deal for Dean Smith's Norwich City. Young attacker Pat Jones scored the consolation goal for Huddersfield Town, who had centre-back Tom Lees sent off.
Millwall, on the other hand, drew 2-2 against Russell Martin's Swansea City in their most recent game. First-half goals from Irish left wing-back Ryan Manning and Irish striker Michael Obafemi for Swansea City were canceled out by late second-half own goals from defender Ben Cabango and centre-back Nathan Wood for Millwall.

Norwich City vs Millwall Prediction
Norwich City registered their first win of the league season by beating Huddersfield Town. They are missing some important players through injuries, with the left-back position a particular worry for manager Dean Smith.
Millwall, on the other hand, frustrated Swansea City by snatching a draw from the jaws of defeat. Having signed German attacker Andreas Voglsammer from Union Berlin this summer, Millwall will rely on the 30-year old for goals as the season progresses.
We expect Norwich City to win.
Prediction: Norwich City 1-0 Millwall
