Leeds vs Norwich Predictions and Betting Tips: Championship Preview

Leeds vs Norwich predictions and betting tips for this Saturday Championship fixture on February 2nd with an anytime goalscorer tip and goals prediction included.

This fixture has the potential to be the Championship game of the season. Promotion is a realistic possibility for both of these two teams and they will be desperate to collect three points from this crucial game. Norwich travel to Elland Road on Saturday evening continuing their tough run of fixtures. The Canaries picked up a decent point against Sheffield United last weekend although Daniel Farke will be disappointed that his side couldn’t secure all three. Leeds needed a late goal to overcome a dogged Rotherham outfit and will be full of confidence ahead of this tie. The Whites have been an all or nothing outfit in recent weeks and haven’t drawn since late October but that run is likely to end here. See our Leeds vs Norwich predictions below.

Leeds vs Norwich Predictions

Just three points separate these sides at the top of the Championship table and that gap could potentially be extended by 7:30pm on Saturday evening. Leeds will be hoping to use home advantage here and make it back-to-back victories at Elland Road. Marcelo Bielsa’s side have been excellent to watch this season and they’ve suffered just two defeats in front of their own fans all season. They bounced back from their defeat to Stoke with a narrow win against Rotherham last weekend. They were good value for their victory although there were a couple of moments of uncertainty at the back. They still have a number of injuries to contend with but their squad versatility has provided a huge filip for the fans and Bielsa’s men will fancy their chances of avoiding defeat here. Norwich have been one of the more entertaining teams to follow this season with the Canaries’ games averaging around 3.17 goals per match. Farke’s men have drawn four of their last six and have become incredibly tough to beat. They’ve lost just once since October 6th with a last minute defeat to Derby being the only blot on their copybook. They should continue that unbeaten run here. Draw is the first of our Leeds vs Norwich predictions for Saturday evening.

 

Leeds vs Norwich Goals Betting Tips

Goals are highly likely in this tie and we can expect plenty of action at both ends of the pitch. There have been 25 goals in Norwich’s last six Championship matches and they’ve scored some absolute belters along the way. Defensive disruptions and injuries haven’t helped matters and they’ve struggled to keep clean sheets in recent weeks. It’s no clean sheet in six for the East Anglian side and just one in ten and they are likely to concede here. Leeds’ games haven’t been quite as high-scoring this season although there’s also been 27 goals in their last seven fixtures. Over 2.5 Goals landed when they met earlier in the campaign although all three goals were scored by Leeds. It is likely to be far less one-sided here but goals are still very much the order of the day. Over 2.5 Goals is the second of our Championship betting tips for this televised tie.

 

Leeds vs Norwich Anytime Goalscorer Predictions

It’s probably becoming rather boring to read but Teemu Pukki has to be backed once again in the anytime goalscorer market. The Finn has been a revelation this season and he executed a beautiful scooped finish last weekend against Sheffield United. He’s 28-year old has now netted in back-to-back games and he’s looking for his 19th goal of the season in all competitions here. He could find joy amongst the Leeds defence here and should be backed once again. There are plenty of goalscoring options available in this match but it’s difficult to rule out Teemu Pukki here. He is the third of our Leeds vs Norwich predictions for this evening’s top-of-the-table clash.

 

Leeds vs Norwich Match Betting Preview

Leeds start as the favourites for this match and they are priced at 5/6 for this encounter. Norwich are available at 16/5 to nick all three points and go level with Leeds at the top of the table. It’s 13/5 for the game to end all-square.

Goals are expected in this game and it’s 4/6 for Both Teams to Score? Yes in this match. Over 2.5 Goals is available at 8/11 and for more ambitious punters, Over 3.5 Goals could be tempting at 7/4.

Kemar Roofe is available at 15/4 to open the scoring and he is at the head of the first goalscorer market. Teemu Pukki is available at 6/1 to break the deadlock in this game whilst his team-mate Jordan Rhodes is 15/2. The exquisite Pablo Hernandez is available at 6/1 to net the first.
