Norwich City Preview – Canaries to make it six wins on the spin?
After suffering another disappointing relegation from the Premier League, Norwich City made a slow start to their 2022-23 Championship campaign, taking just one point from their opening three. However, Dean Smith’s men have recovered with five straight wins to fire their way up the table.
After a 2-1 loss at Hull City on matchday three, Norwich have secured successive Championship successes over Huddersfield Town, Millwall, Sunderland, Birmingham City and Coventry City. In the process, City scored ten and shipped just two.
If results go their way in midweek, Norwich could be top of the table going into this weekend’s tasty home fixture with West Bromwich Albion. As expected, the Canaries are the clear favourites to get the points on Wednesday.
Bristol City Preview – Will the Robins stretch unbeaten run?
Bristol City have been one of the surprise packages in the Championship so far this season. They were tipped for a year of struggle before a ball was kicked, but Nigel Pearson’s men are just three points behind leaders Sheffield United after eight games.
Bristol City lost their opening two matches, as they were beaten at Hull before losing a five-goal thriller to Sunderland at Ashton Gate. However, Pearson’s boys are undefeated in their following eight league and cup fixtures, winning six and drawing two.
