Norwich City, Recent FormNorwich City will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 3-2 away win against Millwall. Their share of possession in that meeting was 54%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Millwall, who had 21 shots on goal with 8 on target.
Manager David Wagner will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. With just 1 clean sheet in the last 6 matches at home, he will be worried about the defensive frailties within his team of late.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Gabriel Sara will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Norwich City.
Sunderland, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Sunderland supremo Tony Mowbray after sustaining a heavy 5-1 home loss to Stoke City. They achieved 56% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Stoke City's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 8, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 10 goals and some valuable points in the process. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 16 games. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Having lost 3 of their last 6 matches and recorded only 2 victories, this has to be seen as a poor run of results.
Ross Stewart will be hoping to create problems for Norwich City in this one, having scored 5 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Sunderland.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Sunderland, losing 0-1 to Norwich City.
The stats show that in the last 3 meetings between The Black Cats and their rivals, Norwich, the former have conceded at least one goal. Goals come easy for Sunderland when they travel to The Canaries, having recorded 6 goals in their past 3 visits and an impressive average of 2 goals per match.
Norwich has a poor track record in the league when they host Sunderland, losing in their last 2 home games.
Norwich manager David Wagner has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Sam Byram (Hamstring), Isaac Hayden (Knee), Przemysław Płacheta (Shin), Jonathan Rowe (Ankle) and Josh Sargent (Ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Sunderland manager Tony Mowbray with Elliot Embleton (Broken ankle), Corry Evans (Cruciate ligament) and Lynden Gooch (Hip) all unavailable for selection, and Ross Stewart (Achilles tendon) out for the rest of the season.
