Norwich and Walsall will face off competitively for the first time in 16 years when they clash in the third round of the FA Cup. The two sides’ last meeting was in League One, with Norwich extending their dominance in the fixture. Let’s have a look at the stats and a prediction for the match.
Hosts Norwich started the year well with a win against QPR but couldn’t keep it going, falling 2-0 to Stoke City last time out. They are still in the relegation region in the Championship and will do with some distraction here.
It was at this same stage last season that Norwich exited the FA Cup, and they will hope for a better outing this time.
Walsall aren’t coming into this game on a very strong footing. They lost back-to-back matches ahead of this fixture and will be looking to return to winning ways here.
In their most recent outing, they fell 2-0 at Cambridge United. Unlike Norwich, Walsall started off from the first round, winning 3-0 at Eastleigh and then 2-0 at Gateshead in the second round.
This will be a tougher outing, but the Saddlers will be confident, having failed to score in only two of their last 10 matches. Daniel Kanu has been crucial on that front, scoring 12 times so far for the visitors.

Our Norwich vs Walsall Prediction
Both Norwich and Walsall are not having their best campaigns in their respective leagues. Norwich might be favored by the fact that they play in a stronger league, but their home form has been woeful. In 13 Championship home matches, Norwich posted just three wins.
We still expect the Canaries to do well against League Two opposition, though. Walsall have been struggling a bit as well, and this will be a massive challenge, but they will want to take advantage of Norwich’s form. Our prediction for Norwich v Walsall is for Norwich to win and BTTS.
