Both these sides have witnessed a total of six goals across their two opening games. Cardiff have scored three and conceded three in two stalemates that saw the BTTS bet win back to back. And with the BTTS bet winning in their last four meetings, we can only see this one doing the same. Find all the details in our Cardiff vs Norwich match prediction below.
The Bluebirds showed their attacking intent at Swindon, with Yousef Salech grabbing a brace before Jack Moylan struck the winner. But they also leaked twice to a League Two side, so the back door is clearly open. And on their return to the league, they conceded one and then two in their 1-1 draw with Wrexham and 2-2 stalemate with Derby.
That's the kind of form that should see Norwich bounce back from their 10-man 3-0 loss to Millwall. That's because Norwich have actually beaten Cardiff in four of their last five meetings, while scoring in all. And in the EFL Cup, The Canaries looked even sharper going forward, with four different scorers sinking MK Dons 4-1.
Even with The Bluebirds trailing significantly in this H2H, they have also hit back in all of their last four meetings against Norwich. That has landed the BTTS bet in the last four editions of this rivalry.

Our Cardiff vs Norwich Prediction
For us, neither team should walk out unscathed. The Bluebirds have conceded in every game so far, shipping three across their 1-1 with Wrexham and 2-2 with Derby. The Canaries have leaked just as freely, and they have scored in each of their last five meetings with Cardiff.
Throw in a BTTS bet that has landed in the last four editions of this fixture, and the pattern is hard to ignore. Hence, our Cardiff vs Norwich match prediction is BTTS.
