Norwich vs Bournemouth: Championship Betting Tips and Odds

When Norwich won the Championship in 2019 it was thanks to an incredible extended run of form that stretched for most of the second half of the season.

After a strong but not brilliant start to the current campaign, the Canaries have hit form once again and it is now surely just a matter of time before they win promotion and the league title once again.

Bournemouth’s chances of earning automatic promotion are very slim with an 11-point gap between themselves and second-placed Watford and that gap is likely to grow this weekend with Norwich a very good bet to win at 9/10 with 888sport.

Norwich vs Bournemouth Betting Tips:

Conversations about well-run football clubs inevitably include Norwich.

The Canaries have a well-earned reputation for doing things the right way and they certainly made the right call staying loyal to Daniel Farke.

Farke gets the club and he clearly knows how to get the best of his players.

Jonathan Woodgate seems to have learned how to get the best of his Bournemouth squad even if it has taken a little bit of time.

However, the former Middlesbrough manager is having to deal with injuries to key players including Lewis Cook who is a big miss in midfield.

Norwich will hope they can press the Bournemouth defence effectively without Cook’s clever movement offering an out ball and so the home side are a good price to win 2-0 at 8/1 with bet365*.

Key Battle to Look Out For

Norwich have been less prone to losing their form if they are missing one or two key players.

Take their defence for example where the very impressive Andrew Omobamidele has been stepped up to cover for Ben Gibson who has been ruled out for the season.

They do need their stars to thrive at the same time though so Teemu Pukki‘s return to form has been very welcome and he is the man to back to score first at 5/2 with Betfair.
