Match highlights
PremiumMatch analysis
Norwich are averaging 1.6 goals a game to Stoke City's 1.2, headlined by a 4-1 win in their last five, yet Superior still projects a tight result when the two meet in the Championship on 1 September. The model backs a narrow 1-0 home win, with 1-1 the alternate score.
Norwich are scoring at a higher rate than Stoke this season
A 4-1 win sits inside Norwich's last five, alongside two defeats and a win, giving them the stronger scoring average of the two sides at 1.6 goals a game. Stoke's own form has been steadier rather than spectacular, one win and three draws in their own last five, with a 2-0 the only game they have kept a clean sheet in. The head-to-head has been tight too, a 2-0 away win and a 1-1 draw in the two most recent meetings.
Norwich scored four goals in their most productive recent game
That 4-1 result shows Norwich's attack has more upside than a 1.6 average alone suggests, and if it shows up here it would push this well past a narrow home win. LOSES IF: Norwich win outright, or Stoke win by two or more goals, since either result sits outside the narrow home win or 1-1 draw Superior has projected.
