1st Prediction for Norwich City v Hull City: Both teams to score 1.58
At Carrow Road, Norwich City have a habit of scoring and conceding – every game so far this season has been both teams to score. That includes draws with Blackburn Rovers, Leeds United, and Sheffield United, as well as a 4-3 thriller against League One side Stevenage in the Carabao Cup. Away from home, Hull City have only drawn a blank on one occasion but have failed to keep a clean sheet.
2nd Prediction for Norwich City v Hull City: Over 2.5 goals 1.67
As well as both teams to score, it’s likely that we’ll see more than a single goal. Defences haven’t been on top for either side, and whether there’s a winner or not, the recent form tells us it should be a high-scoring encounter. Hull City’s last three games have produced 13 goals, whereas the Canaries have more than 2.5 goals in three of their five home matches this season, as well as sharing five with Derby County in their last away match.
3rd Prediction for Norwich City v Hull City: Norwich to score first 1.68
As Norwich are the home side, expect them to make a quick start. They’re used to it – they’ve scored first in six of their last seven matches, and the only outlier was when they lost to nil against Swansea. In fact, there’s only been one game this season where they haven’t scored first, but have scored a goal – the 2-2 draw with Blackburn Rovers back in August.

Confrontation |
Both Norwich and Hull come into this game with promotion aspirations – one was in the play-offs last season, the other finishing just outside. That means a real promotion six-pointer at this early stage of the campaign, with Norwich hoping to press home the advantage of playing at Carrow Road.
The two teams are locked together on points, but history is on the side of the home team – Hull haven’t won in Norfolk since 2010, when Jimmy Bullard started in a 2-0 victory. Norwich will be hoping to repeat last season’s 2-1 win, when a goal right at the end of the first half from Jonathon Rowe drew them level, before Adam Idah grabbed a winner in the last minute of the game.
