Norwich City vs Hull City

, KO: 12:30 Oct 5, 2024, Carrow Road
Hull City

Norwich are starting to build some momentum under new boss Johannes Hoff Thorup and will be targeting another win at home over Hull City as they bid to climb further up the EFL Championship table.

The Dane got off to a slow start, with just one win in his first five games, but that was perhaps understandable with some players in the process of moving on and new signings still bedding in.

He now has a more settled side and results are quickly improving, with two wins and a draw in their last three games sending the Canaries soaring up to 10th in the table.

Hull sit on the same points as Norwich after also enjoying an upsurge in form. They've been even hotter than the Canaries in their last three matches, picking up maximum points against Stoke, Cardiff and QPR.

Having struggled for goals earlier in the campaign, Hull are now flying under their new gaffer Tim Walter, with 10 goals scored during that winning run.

With two of the Championship's form sides colliding, it promises to be a fascinating game and fans should be treated to a cracking contest.

How the bookies view it: Canaries backed to keep on flying

This is a tough one to call but Betano make Norwich odds-on favourites at 37/40 with home advantage. Hull City look a bit overpriced at 5/2 for a fourth successive win and the draw pays 5/2.

Recent head to head: Norwich out for a repeat

Norwich City bossed this fixture last season, claiming 2-1 victories home and away, but there hasn't been much between these sides in recent years. The last 12 meetings have produced five Canaries wins, four victories for the Tigers and three draws.

Players to watch: Borja on a roll

I flagged up Borja Sainz for a Norwich goal against Watford a few weeks ago and he delivered by scoring in a 4-1 win. The Spaniard then followed it up with a hat-trick against Derby so looks good here at 13/5 with Bet365 for anytime scorer.

Chris Bedia has scored in his last two games for Hull and will be full of confidence heading to Carrow Road. The striker is 12/5 with Betano to keep his scoring streak going.

Probable line-ups

Norwich still have a few players out with Onel Hernandez, Liam Gibbs, Christian Fassnacht, Jakob Sorensen and Ashley Barnes set to be missing again. Defender Jose Cordoba is also a doubt after being subbed at half-time in midweek.

Hull are in a similar boat with Thimothee Lo-Tutala, Charlie Hughes, Andy Smith, Ryan Longman and Harvey Cartwright struggling with injuries.

Norwich City: Gunn, Duffy, Doyle, Stacey, Fisher, Sainz, Crnac, Ben Slimane, McLean, Nunez, Sargent.

Hull City: Pandur, Coyle, Jones, McLoughlin, Drameh, Simons, Slater, Palmer, Millar, Bedia, Belloumi.

Anything else catch the eye?

Both these sides have been scoring freely of late so this should be a decent watch. BTTS pays just 3/5 at Betano but if you combine that with over 2.5 goals it boosts the price to evens with Bet365.

There's not a great deal between these teams so I'm expecting a close contest. Backing the half-time draw looks a good option and it pays 5/4 at Betfred.

Norwich's last two games have averaged over 14 corners so that's another market worth looking at. Over 10.5 flag kicks pays evens at Betfred while Norwich -1 appeals in the handicap at 20/21 with Bet365.
