Norwich City will host Sheffield Wednesday at Carrow Road on Tuesday in another round of the 2024-25 EFL Championship campaign. The home side have had mixed results in recent games and are falling behind in the race for the promotion playoffs as they sit 10th in the table with 49 points from 36 matches.
They were held to a 1-1 draw by struggling Oxford United in their game on Friday and perhaps deserved more from the game but failed to capitalize on their 77% ball possession as they recorded yet another winless outing against the newly-promoted outfit.
Sheffield Wednesday endured a difficult run of form in February but have begun the new month in strong fashion. They picked up a clinical 3-0 victory away at Plymouth Argyle on Saturday taking an early lead via an own goal before efforts from Callum Peterson and Djeidi Gassama helped clinch maximum points for the Owls.
Trending
The visitors, who sit 13th in the table, are just one point behind the their midweek opponents and will leapfrog them with maximum points on Tuesday.

Norwich City vs Sheffield Wednesday Prediction
The Canaries are on a run of back-to-back draws and have won just one of their last six games. They have, however, lost just one of their last eight league matches at Carrow Road and will head into the midweek clash as slight favorites.
Wednesday's latest result ended a three-game losing streak and they will now be looking to take inspiration from that this week. They have, however, struggled for results on the road of late and could lose this one.
