Norwich City will host Watford at Carrow Road on Saturday in another round of the 2024-25 EFL Championship campaign. The home side have endured a sluggish start to life under new boss Johannes Thorup and find themselves 15th in the Championship standings with just five points from five matches.

They were beaten 1-0 by Swansea City in their last game, falling behind after just four minutes following a Forson Amankwah own goal and failing to find a way back into the game despite creating multiple chances to score.

Watford, meanwhile, have performed well this season and are making an early push for the promotion playoffs. They played out a 1-1 draw against Coventry City last time out, heading into the break a goal down before Tom Dele-Bashiru levelled the scores midway through the second half with his first home league goal since last August.

The visitors sit fifth in the Championship standings with 10 points from an obtainable 15 and will be looking to add to that tally come weekend.


Norwich City vs Watford Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

  • There have been 108 meetings between Norwich and Watford. The hosts have won 44 of those games while the visitors have won 35 times. There have been 29 draws between the two teams.
  • The visitors have won three of their last four games in this fixture and eight of their last 10.
  • The Canaries are without a clean sheet in their last four games in this fixture.
  • Watford have managed just one clean sheet in their last six league games on the road.
  • Norwich have conceded six goals in the Championship this season, the joint-fewest of any team in the bottom half of the pile.

Norwich City vs Watford Prediction

Norwich have lost two of their last three games and have won just one of their last five. They are, however, undefeated at Carrow Road since last November and will fancy their chances of a positive result this weekend.

Watford are on a run of back-to-back winless outings after winning each of their previous four matches. They have, however, struggled for results on the road of late and could see defeat here.

Prediction: Norwich City 2-1 Watford
