Check out our 26/25 Norwich vs Man City prediction below
Manchester City extended their unbeaten run in the Premier League to 14 matches by easing past Brentford on Wednesday night and Pep Guardiola's side are well on their way to a fourth title in five years.
However, City can't afford to take their foot off the gas on the domestic front despite even though they have a crucial Champions League clash with Sporting Lisbon next week.
A trip to Norwich looks a formality on paper, so much so that the hosts are a huge 17/1 with Grosvenor Sport to cause an upset, but that looked the case in 2019 yet City came a cropper, losing the game 3-2.
If they fall into the same trap this time around then they would open the door for Liverpool in the title race.
City are red-hot 1/7 chances to get the job done so we need to look further afield than the outright match odds for a wager in this game.
Norwich looked a lost cause at the back end of 2021 but the Canaries have show real spirit under new boss Dean Smith and wins over Everton and Watford have really lifted the level of optimism around the club in recent weeks.
The goals have started to flow in recent games but their underlying xG numbers haven't been great, so much so that they have only through the 1.0 xGF barrier once in their last eight games. Ironically, their peak xGF of 1.2 against Crystal Palace failed to yield a goal in a game they lost 3-0.
So, creating big chances is still an issue for Norwich despite their upturn in fortunes. With that in mind, the Man City to win to nil wager at 10/13 looks solid.
