Norwich City vs Oxford United Prediction and Betting Tips | November 25th 2025

Norwich City host Oxford United at Carrow Road on Tuesday in another round of the 2025-26 EFL Championship campaign. The home side have endured a woeful campaign, prompting the dismissal of head coach Liam Manning less than six months into his reign at the club as they sit 23rd in the table with just nine points from 16 games.

Former Rangers boss Philippe Clement has been appointed as the new head coach and tasked with turning the club’s fortunes around. The Belgian, however, saw his tenure begin on a sour note as Norwich fell to a 4-1 defeat against newly promoted Birmingham City on Saturday and will hope to get his side up and running this week.

Oxford United have also had their struggles in the league this season but remain hopeful of beating the drop. They played out a 1-1 draw with promotion hopefuls Middlesbrough last time out, with Luke Harris opening the scoring midway through the first half before their opponents leveled the scores early in the second.

The visitors sit 21st in the table with 14 points but could fall into the drop zone should they fail to win this week.

Norwich City vs Oxford United Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

• There have been 25 meetings between the two teams. Norwich have won 11 of those games while Oxford have won eight times.
• There have been six draws between the two teams including their most recent matchup which ended 1-1.
• Norwich have the joint-third-worst offensive and joint-second-worst defensive records in the English second tier this season with 15 goals scored and 27 conceded in 16 games.
• Two of Oxford's three league wins this season have come on the road.

Norwich City vs Oxford United Prediction

The Canaries are on a run of back-to-back defeats and are winless in their last 12 matches, a run stretching back to the start of September. They have the worst home record in the division this term, having lost all seven of their games at Carrow Road, but remain slight favorites for this one due to the difference in squad quality.

The Yellows are winless in their last four games and have won just two of their last 10. They have had mixed results on the road of late but should have enough to pick up a point against a wayward Norwich side this week.
