After a big away win at the weekend, seventh-placed Southampton have an important home fixture. The Saints host 12th-placed Norwich City who like the home side are in good form. Read our match prediction below.

Southampton are firing on all cylinders at present. They are in the FA Cup quarter-finals and only a place below the final promotion play-off position. Saturday saw them go to leaders Coventry and come away with a 2-1 win.

After Wrexham lost at Watford on Tuesday, Southampton will move into sixth on goal differnce if three pointsc can be earned against Norwich. The Saints are unbeaten in their 12 league and cup games with wins in three of the last four in the Championship. Home form this season has produced eight league wins with ten points earned from the last four matches.

Norwich City still have some faint hope of making it into the play-offs. The Canaries are nine points behind sixth place after the weekend's games. They beat out-of-form Preston 2-0 at home on Saturday, their fourth straight league victory.

However, three came at home and all against sides in the bottom half of the table. On the road, City have won seven league games and four of the last five. We tip Southampton to win.

Our Southampton vs Norwich Prediction

Southampton are pushing hard for an immediate return to the Premier League. They won at Coventry on Saturday to extend their unbeaten run to 12 matches. Six of their last ten home league games have ended in victory.

Norwich made a poor start to the season but are in good form now but a loss here would virtually end their promotion hopes. Recent wins have been against poor sides and this is much tougher. Our Southampton v Norwich prediction is Southampton wins.
