In the Championship on Tuesday night, Norwich City play at home, welcoming Birmingham to Carrow Road, with three big points at stake.
Norwich Form GuideNorwich were expected to be in the promotion race but so far, they've fallen short. The good news is that things are very tight, they come here in 9th position on 46 points, which means they are three outside of the playoffs, if things go their way this week, they could well be in.
At the weekend, Norwich were held to a 0-0 draw by Wigan, a team who are currently in the relegation zone. That was a disappointing game for Norwich, one they should have been winning against a team that are struggling. Prior to that, last week Norwich were excellent at home, beating Hull 3-1.
Birmingham Form GuideBirmingham have not been in great form recently, and that has seen them slide down the Championship table, slowly edging towards the relegation zone. They have won two of their last six games, but lost the other four. They come here on the back of two defeats in a row, and both of those have come against teams that are below them in the standings.
At the weekend, Birmingham were beaten 2-1 away at Hudderfield, who are in the relegation zone, while last week, they lost 2-0 at home to Cardiff, a team just outside the relegation zone. This type of form is not promising at all for them, and they could well find themselves down closer to the drop zone very soon if it continues.
Match PredictionAlthough Norwich were unable to get the win at the weekend away at Wigan, they are fancied to do so here. They have home advantage, and were excellent in their last home game against Hull. Birmingham are in trouble, and don't look like turning things around here, so it's a Norwich win on Tuesday night.
