Free Norwich City vs Wolves EPL Prediction:
So far, both the Wolverhampton Wanderers and Norwich City are generating scoring opportunites at a below-average rate. On the season Wolverhampton ranks 14th in attacking area possessions, with Norwich City sitting 20th. Although both squads are generating attacking zone possessions at a below average rate, the Wolverhampton Wanderers have been able to counter this with strong defensive play, giving up the 12th fewest attacking possessions, compared to Norwich City which ranks 20th among MLS units.
In this matchup, I there isn’t a lot of value in taking the Wolves on the moneyline, or on Norwich to keep the game within 1.5 goals. Instead, I recommend taking the under in goals scored. Throughout the season, Norwich City has benefited from strong goalie play, ranking 3rd in save percentage.
