Norwich vs Blackburn Rovers Predictions

Norwich can grind out a home win over goal-shy Blackburn

Norwich should be backed to beat Blackburn at Carrow Road on Saturday. The visitors are struggling to find the back of the net this season and that is unlikely to change against a Norwich side managed by Philippe Clement.

Both teams have lost more games than they’ve won this season, with Norwich two places above Blackburn in 19th and 21st respectively. The hosts have nine wins and 15 defeats, while Blackburn have eight wins and 14 losses.

The visitors have struggled defensively of late, with Blackburn failing to keep a clean sheet in six of their last seven Championship games.

Scoring is proving to be a problem for Blackburn’s forward line. They have failed to score in three of their last four Championship away games and have managed just 12 goals in 14 on the road this season – an average of 0.86 goals a game.

The hosts are in fine fettle. Norwich have been winners in four of their last six Championship games and have only lost one of their last six head-to-heads with Blackburn.

The visitors are in a rut. Blackburn have failed to win any of their last six Championship away games, and come into this match on the back of two straight defeats on their travels.

A narrow 1-0 win for Norwich looks the most likely outcome in the correct-score betting. There have been under 2.5 goals in Blackburn’s last three Championship games and six of Norwich’s nine wins this season were by a single goal.
