NORWICH have suffered a blip with an away defeat at Swansea followed by a draw against Watford.
As a result Cardiff have replaced Paul Lambert's men in the top two going into the run-in but the Canaries should be back in second with a Friday night win against Nottm Forest.
Norwich have been strong at Carrow Road all season, winning six and drawing three from nine since Christmas.
Forest have won five and drawn two against the top nine at home this season and meet a Forest side whose freefall was arrested by a midweek success against 10-man Burnley.
However, Billy Davies' men have fallen to seventh and with the likes of Hull and Millwall catching them fast they will struggle to make the play-offs.
Norwich are worth taking at a biggest 1-1 with Stan James while Forest are 3-1 with the likes of Ladbrokes and Paddy Power.
Top scorer Grant Holt is a fitness doubt so check starting line-ups before considering a bet on him.
Five of Norwich's last six have gone over 2.5 goals and four of Forest's so look at overs again at a best 1-1 with Coral and Ladbrokes.
And this could be one for both teams to score at 5-6 with boylesports and Coral.
Recommendation
Norwich
