The72’s writers offer their Norwich City vs Blackburn Rovers prediction ahead of the Championship clash on Sunday.

Norwich City come into this weekend’s game in dire need of a return to winning ways. The Canaries are without a Championship win in five matches, losing four of those.

Pressure has been growing on manager David Wagner as a result, though the general consensus is that the struggles on the pitch are born from issues at the top. Norwich sit 17th coming into this weekend’s fixtures, six points off the play-offs.

As for Blackburn Rovers, the momentum built up by their three-game winning streak has waned a little with back-to-back losses but they put in a valiant display against Chelsea in the week despite losing 2-0.

Jon Dahl Tomasson rotated the ranks at Stamford Bridge but should be back at full strength as they look to move up from 12th in the table.

Here, a handful of our writers make their predictions for the game…

 

James Ray

“Norwich are in a concerning position at the moment but they have a good chance to get back on track here. Blackburn can be an unpredictable side and if they’re off their game, they could be there for the taking.
