On Wednesday night, Norwich City host Reading at Carrow Road, as the Canaries look to move one step closer to a return to the Premier League.
Norwich City have been in outstanding form of late, having won their last eight Championship games. Last time out, Daniel Farke’s team recorded a 4-0 win over QPR. The win over the Hoops saw Norwich score at least two goals for the sixth time in seven Championship outings.
The home sides good form has seen the team from East Anglia move seven points clear of second place Sheffield United and eight points clear of third place Leeds United. The Canaries are now well and truly in control of the race for promotion.
Norwich have been excellent on home soil of late in the Championship, winning six of their last seven matches at Carrow Road. A key to their recent good home form has been the Canaries attacking displays, as Norwich have scored at least two goals in 11 of their last 12 Championship matches on home soil.
In contrast to the home team, Reading are enduring a poor campaign in the second tier. The Royals are just one point and place above the relegation zone.
The visitor's recent form in Championship has been mixed, but last time out they suffered a 3-1 defeat at Hull City. The defeat on Humberside means that five of their last six league matches have produced over 2.5 goals.
The Royals have struggled for away wins in the league of late, winning just once in their last 16 away games in the second tier. Their recent away games have been relatively high scoring in the Championship, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four away matches.
Forebet predicts that Norwich will move one step closer to the promised land of the Premier League by recording a victory in a high scoring encounter.
