Norwich v Blackburn Betting Tips
Norwich v Blackburn Match Preview
Blackburn made a mockery of ante-post relegation predictions by defeat Derby 4-2 with a fine attacking performance on opening night, before annihilating Stockport 6-1 in the EFL Cup in midweek.
Sure, Sammie Szmodics found the net a combined three times in those two games, and remains a target for Ipswich, but it’s not as if anyone would be fearing for Rovers as an attacking entity where the former Colchester prospect to depart.
Szmodics has been great, but then again so have Tyrhys Dolan, Makhtar Gueye, Yuki Ohashi and Andreas Weimann, who have all contributed to the collective return of 10 goals in all competitions.
John Eustace deserves immense credit for galvanizing the team, and club, in adversity, with Tuesday’s Venky court case no longer looming over Ewood Park quite so ominously.
So, Rovers look more than capable of getting a positive result, with hosts Norwich in a state of flux.
The Canaries are getting to grips with new tactical ideas from new head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup, who confirmed star wide man Jonny Rowe refused to play in the opening day 2-0 loss at Oxford, ahead of a move, while key midfielder Gabriel Sara has departed for Galatasaray.
The timing could favour the visitors…
