Norwich City and Southampton meet often enough to know each other well, but the most recent result, a 1-0 narrow win for Southampton, gives the home side something to put right in this match. Meanwhile, Southampton are clearly in the better rhythm. Norwich City are going through their worst spell of the season, having lost 4 in a row. The defence is a clear problem, having already conceded 19 goals from 9 matches, while Southampton have won 3 of their last 5 and have conceded only 10 goals all season. Only consistency is the question mark. This game is likely to play out with Southampton as the side opening up and attacking, because Norwich City at home tend to sit back and wait for the counter, especially looking at the possession averages where Southampton are clearly higher. If Norwich City can handle Southampton's attacking moments early in the game, the match has a chance of ending without a defeat.
