Norwich City vs Crystal Palace: Betting on the Total Over

Norwich City will host Crystal Palace at home. This game will be held within the 24th round of the English championship. Will the Canaries extend the positive streak of performances?

Norwich City

After a 0:2 away defeat from West Ham United, Norwich City has improved and achieved three positive results. First, Dean Smith's wards met Everton in the EPL and outplayed them 2:1. Then Norwich successfully visited Watford, defeating the Hornets 3:0. Thanks to these results, Norwich managed to leave the EPL relegation zone. Last week, Norwich unexpectedly defeated Wolverhampton (1:0) and reached the last 16 of the FA Cup.

Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace had an unsuccessful last AFL game before the break. The team led by Patrick Vieira suffered a 3:0 defeat at home to Liverpool. Crystal Palace is 13th in the English league standings with 24 points. Last weekend, Crystal Palace hosted Hartlepool at home and won 2:0. Thus, the Eagles advanced to the last 16 of the FA Cup.

Expert Betting Tips

Norwich City has dreadful stats- only one win in their previous 28 games (20 defeats and seven draws). Currently, Dean Smith's charges are definitely rising and in a great mood. It took the team a whole round to find their optimal game rhythm. I would not consider the Canaries the underdogs. In addition, the home team will be motivated to take revenge on Crystal Palace for their devastating defeat in the first part of the season. It should be noted once again that the most recent head-to-head encounters have been characterized by a large number of productive moments. I expect that the next game will be no exception.
