Norwich was one of the teams that we had on the previous Saturday at 1-1 with Barnsley and although the final selection did not justify it, its overall image remains the same and unchanged and therefore we will ... stick to it.
More fortunate in 1-1 with Barnsley, followed by a defeat with Nottingham on Wednesday and this is how the troubled season continues. The home draw with Barnsley was the sixth consecutive home away from home, and the midweek defeat was the fourth in the last five, which just came as a seal for the very modest season that is going on.
Preston, after a stellar turn, returned to victories in a very persuasive way last Tuesday, passing very easily from Bristol City headquarters to 1-2, more easily than perhaps showing the final score and the main cause the returns of the basic players that were missing in the previous period. Somehow it regained its racing identity and with good pressure, strong defense and excellent counter attacks came to victory, hoping to build a new winning streak in its effort to take part in the play-offs.
Having at the same time a guide that in its last two visits to Carrow it was not defeated (victory last year, draw last year), our assessment is that the victory is in its possibilities, and the 3,75 of bet365 is satisfactory enough to try it.
