Betting on Stoke City
Stoke City managed to rescue a point last week after a 1-1 draw against Middlesbrough. It was a difficult match because its opponent is one of the best of the campaign. However, Stoke showed their ability to react and managed to equalize before the end of the first half.
The point achieved does little to change their situation, as they are still in the second half of the standings, but they remain unbeaten in three games, with two wins and a draw. Their overall record is 13 wins, eight draws and 16 losses in 37 rounds.
Although they have not performed brilliantly at home, it is worth noting that their last home game ended in a 3-2 win over Blackburn, and three of their six home wins have come in the last five games at their stadium.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Jack Bonham; Ki-Jana Hoever; Axel Tuanzebe, Axel Tuanzebe, Morgan Fox, Dujon Sterling; Ben Pearson, Josh Laurent; Jacob Brown, Will Smallbone, Tyrese Campbell; Dwight Gayle
Betting on Norwich City
Norwich City drew 1-1 with Huddersfield during Wednesday’s match, and although the point is a positive one after last weekend’s 1-0 loss to Sunderland, going two weeks without a win does not make them a reliable team. They are now four points behind sixth place, and will need to win this game if they are to continue to push for the Playoff spots.
Once again, the Canaries will be visitors this matchday, which is not a bad thing, as they have completed three matches without losing in that condition, with one win and two draws. In total, they register eight wins, four draws and six defeats in 18 away matches, so 50% of their victories have come in duels on rival territory.
Probable Lineup (4-1-4-1): Angus Gunn; Max Aarons, Grant Hanley, Ben Gibson, Dimitrios Giannoulis; Kenny McLean; Onel Hernandez, Marcelino Nunez, Gabriel Sara, Adam Idah; Teemu Pukki.
JefeBet Prediction
Norwich City have recorded three consecutive wins over Stoke City in the Championship, with both teams scoring in each of those matches. Although both teams are coming from draws, Norwich is the one favored by the statistics and could finally find the victory they have been denied in previous matches.
Prediction: Norwich City wins by a score of 0-1.
