Open Games
Both teams score in 86% of Cardiff's matches. Their games rarely stay quiet
▸ Form & goals
Goals are a tough one to call here. Cardiff are scoring 2.7 a game (2.7 of those at home) and Norwich manage 1.9 (1.9 on the road). Add it up and it's basically a coin-flip whether we see three or more, we make it 53%, so there's no strong lean either way on the goals line. Whether both teams score is a genuine coin-flip, and we make it 52%.
▸ Team news & context
Cardiff are all-out attack: 2.7 goals a game, but they leak 1.7 at the other end. They'll throw plenty at Norwich, but there are gaps at the back for the visitors to get at. Norwich have goals in them (1.9 per game) but their record at the back (1.7 conceded) leaves them open. This could be end-to-end. Neither defence inspires confidence. Both sides rarely keep clean sheets. Open, attacking football is on the cards.
In the last 10 meetings: Cardiff have won 3, Norwich 7, with 0 draws. These fixtures average 3.3 goals per game. 6 of the last 10 produced 3+ goals. Recent results: Norwich 4-2 Cardiff, Cardiff 2-1 Norwich, Norwich 4-1 Cardiff.
