Manchester United had a really bad day at the office in midweek, heavily losing the first leg of their League Cup semi-final against rivals Man City. They will be expected to march to three points at home against the relegation-threatened Norwich however. Failure to collect the win would heap massive pressure back on boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Manchester United News and Form – Can Manchester United sink Norwich?

The Red Devils lost 2-0 at Arsenal in a pretty abject display on New Years’ Day. They were totally outplayed over the first half of the game. Things didn’t get better in an FA Cup 0-0 draw at Wolves in which United failed to get a single shot on target. The home form of Manchester United in the Premier League this season is W5 D4 L1. They are undefeated in their last eight there, so have that going for them. They have hit the back of the net in all home fixtures played their season, but their defence continues to struggle.

7/2

Betfair

Manchester United have not secured a home clean sheet in seven fixtures now. Of the eight league successes that they have earned in this campaign (home and away), five have been by one goal margin. There has been a trend with United being ahead at half time at Old Trafford, which has happened in six of their ten home games. Only four teams are starting the weekend with better top-flight home records than that of United’s. Can they shake off their poor start to the new year and secure three points against Norwich?

Norwich News and Form – Will the Canaries deny Manchester United?

There has been no league win for Norwich in their last eight played. However, they have secured back-to-back draws against Tottenham and Crystal Palace. Every point for the bottom side is a precious one, although they need to start winning games as they are seven points from safety. Norwich hold just a W1 D2 L7 away record in the top flight this season and they are winless three away from Carrow Road.

There have only been five goals scored by Norwich on their travels and only 20% of their road fixtures have made it over 2.5 goals. Eight of the thirteen league losses that Norwich have suffered this season have been by a margin of at least two goals. They have not been leading at the half time break in any away game this season (D5 L5). Home and away combined, Norwich have not earned a clean sheet in eight fixtures. Of the goals that they have conceded on their travels, 69% have been against them in the first half of games.

Manchester United vs Norwich Predictions

Manchester United to win: The Red Devils have looked poor in their two games in 2020, but can shake that off and take three points against Norwich. There is just no indication that the Canaries are going to be able to stand strong in defence away from home. United to win.
