Bristol City are priced at 19/10 by SkyBet to end Norwich’s nine game unbeaten run. They are currently on a three-match unbeaten run, their best form in 12 weeks. Their form in front of a home crowd however has stalled their progress. City are winless in three at home. The home side will be looking for either Andreas Weimann or Famara Diedhiou to provide the cutting edge. Both have five goals this season. Diedhiou is (link no longer available) to score anytime.

Norwich are priced at 7/5 to remain top of the league and get another three points. David Farke’s side are deserving their position at top of the table with an unbeaten nine match run. Five of their last ten matches have seen them score 3 or more goals. Much of that is thanks to Teemu Pukki, who has scored 12 goals this season.
