Norwich City vs Sunderland Prediction and Betting Tips | March 12, 2023

Norwich City and Sunderland draw the curtains on round 36 of the EFL Championship when they square off at the Carrow Road Stadium on Sunday (March 12).

The Black Cats head into the weekend on a three-game losing streak and will look to end this dry spell.

Norwich, meanwhile, leapfrogged Millwall into the playoffs places with a pulsating 3-2 win over the Lions last Saturday.

The Canaries have now gone five games without defeat in the league, picking up four wins and a draw since a 1-0 loss to Bristol City on February 11.

With 55 points from 35 games, Norwich are sixth in the Championship, one point off Millwall just outside the playoff spot.

Meanwhile, Sunderland failed to move into the top half of the standings, as they fell to a humiliating 5-1 home defeat against Stoke City.

The Black Cats have now failed to win their last four games, picking up one point from the last 12 available.

With 49 points from 35 games, Sunderland are 11th in the Championship but could move level on points with eighth-placed Coventry City with a win this weekend.
