Norwich
The return of Norwich’s key player Josh Sargent did not have an immediate impact in the previous match, as they suffered a home defeat against Watford. That outcome is understandable given his recent absence and lack of match rhythm.
This fixture against QPR traditionally produces goals, and the numbers support that trend. QPR boast one of the stronger home goal differences in the league, scoring 20 and conceding 15 goals, while Norwich’s away record also points toward open games, with 14 goals scored and 19 conceded in 12 matches.
Head-to-head history further reinforces this outlook, with both teams scoring in three of the last five meetings.
What we say
Both Teams to Score
Considering the goal differences of both sides, their recent head-to-head record, and Norwich’s urgent need for points as they remain in the relegation zone, we expect a more open approach from the visitors. All signs point toward a match with goals at both ends.
