Norwich City and Burnley go head-to-head in the 21st round of matches in the Championship this weekend. A difficult run of results have left the Canaries 10th ahead of this game while the Clarets go into the weekend placed third. Below we have a prediction for this match.

Hosts Norwich are coming from a 0-0 draw with Portsmouth, marking a second straight winless outing. They had earlier lost 3-0 to QPR.

Coming into this game with just two wins in their last 11 matches, Norwich will be keen on rising again. They are struggling defensively too, conceding two or more in eight of their last 10 matches.

Burnley are coming into this game in much stronger shape and looking to continue with their promotion push. Like Norwich, they are also coming from a 0-0 draw, theirs being against Derby County.

However, unlike Norwich, they are on a seven-match unbeaten run, having posted four wins in the process. Burnley also have six clean sheets in those seven matches.

Being four points behind league leaders Sheffield United, Burnley’s push for a straight return to the topflight is going well. They have the best defence in the league and have only lost twice – the joint best tally in that respect.
