Blackburn will look to build on their latest win as they host a stuttering Norwich in a matchday four encounter of the 2025-26 Championship. This match at Ewood Park between the 16th-placed Rovers and 17th-placed Canaries comes with our prediction of over 2.5 goals scored.
After three rounds of action, both teams have three points from one win and two losses each. Blackburn’s slightly better goal difference (plus one) compared to Norwich (minus one) puts them higher in the table.
A 3-0 away win at Hull last weekend was a big relief for Blackburn, who started the season with three defeats in all competitions. That included one in the EFL Cup and losses to West Brom (1-0) and Birmingham (2-1) in the Championship.
They are yet to get a point at home in this season, losing 2-1 to Bradford and Birmingham in the EFL Cup and the league, respectively.
Norwich’s start to the season was a positive one, landing two wins in their first three matches, after losing on matchday one. However, consecutive defeats, including a 3-0 home defeat to Southampton in the midweek EFL Cup, saw their momentum clipped.
The Canaries lost 2-1 at home to Middlesbrough last weekend in the league, but their two competitive trips in this campaign have earned them 2-1 wins.

Our Blackburn vs Norwich Prediction
Blackburn Rovers found some respite last weekend to earn a win away at Hull after starting the season with three consecutive defeats. Two of those defeats have come by a 2-1 scoreline, while the win came by a 3-0 score, so there’s value in backing another goal-laden encounter here. Norwich turn up with a similar record, having seen exactly three goals scored in all their five competitive matches this season. A cheeky pick could be backing exactly three goals!
This match could be another high-scoring return, and our Blackburn vs Norwich prediction is over 2.5.
