Championship Betting Preview: Norwich vs Sheffield Wednesday

Norwich welcome Sheffield Wednesday to Carrow Road, with the visitors already relegated and sitting bottom of the table. Kick-off is set for 14:45 on Wednesday 25 February.

Canaries to Win Big

We think Norwich are a value bet off -2 on the Asian Handicap. Take the -104 that the hosts win by more than two goals in their meeting with Sheffield Wednesday and get your money back if the winning margin is exactly two.

1-1 Draw in Pair’s Last Battle

Norwich City lost when last in action. In a home game at Carrow Road, they were turned over 2-1 by Birmingham City. The Canaries enjoyed 61% possession and had nine shots on target, while Kenny McLean bagged the goal.

Sheffield Wednesday have been relegated from the Championship with 13 games still remaining, setting an unwanted record.

Wednesday have lost their previous ten Championship games including a recent 2-1 defeat away to Sheffield United in the Steel City derby at Bramall Lane. Henrik Pedersen's side managed two shots on goal and had 41% possession, while Charlie McNeill found the net.

Head-to-Head Statistics

Wednesday are unbeaten in the past four games against Norwich, with the last clash ending in a 1-1 draw at Hillsborough. The previous 8 H2H matches have ended up with three Norwich wins, two Wednesday victories and three draws.
