Norwich City vs Bristol City Prediction

Norwich City have made a nightmarish start to the season and are embroiled in an early relegation scrap rather than being in the promotion conversation, which would have been ideal. The Canaries are one of just two sides yet to register a point in front of their fans so far.

Bristol City made a five-game unbeaten start to the Championship (three wins) but have failed to win four games played since then (two losses).

We are backing the two sides to share the spoils in a low-scoring stalemate.

Prediction: Norwich City 1-1 Bristol City
