Betting on Norwich City
Until matchday 40, Norwich City dreamed of making it to the Playoffs and returning to the Premier League, but it never won again. In fact, the team is now on a five-game winless streak, which relegated it to 12th place, from which it could not recover.
This team’s worst run came at the worst possible time. It was just one point away from fighting for the third promotion spot, but this terrible string of adverse results left it in the EFL Championship for another year.
Norwich City’s last two games were losses, 0-3 at home against Swansea City and 1-2 against West Brom. Mentally, the team is already on vacation because, during this winless streak, it has only scored three goals and conceded 11.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Angus Gunn; Max Aarons, Andrew Omobamidele, Sam Bryan, Dimitrios Giannoulis; Gabriel Sara, Jacob Sorensen; Marquinhos, Liam Gibbs, Christos Tzolis; Josh Sargent.
Betting on Blackpool
Blackpool has officially been relegated. Last matchday, the team had a chance to avoid it, but it needed to beat Millwall and lost 2-3. The final 10 minutes were dramatic and sealed its fate in England’s Third Division.
It wasn’t a good season for Blackpool, finishing third from the bottom of the standings, and only winning three of the last 10 matches. A slight improvement towards the end of the competition wasn’t enough to erase the disappointing year the team had. Nonetheless, the squad would like to leave with a win for a dignified farewell from the EDL Championship.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Daniel Grimshaw; Jordan Lawrence Gabriel, Curtis Nelson, James Husband, Andy Lyons; Lewis Florini, Charlie Patino; Morgan Rogers, Keshi Anderson, CJ Hamilton; Jerry Yates.
JefeBet Prediction
Norwich City’s performance at home was quite unpredictable, and as we witnessed, it lost the last game at home. Throughout the tournament, the team played 22 games at home, and only managed to win eight times, scoring 27 goals and conceding 26.
On the other hand, Blackpool had a dismal record as visitors. The team only managed to win four out of 22 games played away, conceding a whopping 38 goals. However, it improved its game and won the last visit, making it difficult to predict a clear favorite. Therefore, at JefeBet, we believe that this game will end in a draw.
Prediction: Tie (NOR 1-1 BLA).
