Hull City Preview – Tough test for the Tigers?
Hull City kicked off their 2022-23 Championship season with a comeback win over Bristol City at the MKM Stadium. Andreas Weimann gave the Robins a first-half lead, but Ozan Tufan levelled from the penalty spot in the 72nd minute. Right at the death, Jean Seri hit the winner for the Tigers.
Hull followed that up with a decent draw on the road last weekend. Preston North End saw more of the ball and had more shots on goal, but Shota Arveladze’s boys left Deepdale with a 0-0 draw. They did suffer a setback in midweek, as they lost 2-1 to EFL League Two side Bradford City in the EFL Cup.
Hull will be pleased with their start, and a positive result on Saturday will stand them in good stead ahead of the two upcoming away matches at Burnley and West Bromwich Albion. The hosts are priced at 13/5 to win this.
Norwich City Preview – Can the Canaries pick up first league win?
After dropping out of the Premier League last term, Norwich City will be looking for another instant return to the top tier. The Canaries have been somewhat of a yo-yo club in recent years.
Norwich’s season got off the worst possible start when they were beaten at the Cardiff City Stadium in game one. City then failed to get the better of newly promoted Wigan Athletic at Carrow Road. They did, however, see off Birmingham City in the EFL Cup in midweek.

Hull City vs Norwich City Betting Advice
When these two clubs last met, Norwich edged a five-goal thriller at Carrow Road in a Championship contest back in March 2019. The reverse game that season finished in a goalless draw.
Hull have picked up just one win from their last five meetings with the Canaries, though it was a memorable one. Back in March 2018, the Tigers beat Norwich 4-3 at home.

Hull have made a solid start, though this will be their toughest challenge yet. Norwich are still suffering a relegation hangover, but we fancy Smith’s boys to seal their first win since April on Saturday. The Norwich victory is priced at 21/20.
Teemu Pukki has been Norwich’s main man for goals in recent years, and the Finn will be looking to get off the mark this weekend. Pukki is the 4/1 favourite to score the opening goal of the game.
