Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head:
Norwich City have had a poor opening to their Championship season, winning just 2 and losing 5 of their first 9 matches.
The Canaries are winless in their last 5 matches, a run that began with a 1-1 draw at Coventry City. Norwich looked to be on their way to an impressive victory after Mathias Kvistgaarden had given them a 17th minute lead only for Haji Wright to equalise 6 minutes into added time.
Defeat at home to Wrexham followed despite Jack Stacey firing Manning’s side into the lead. The Welsh side went 3-1 up before Jovon Makama scored his first goal for the club in injury time.
Makama was again on the scoresheet to earn his side a valuable 1-1 draw at Stoke City but was back on the bench for the 0-1 home defeat to West Bromwich Albion. Norwich’s next outing saw them fall to a crushing defeat at the hands of their bitter rivals Ipswich Town. The Tractor Boys ran out 3-1 victors despite an Oscar Schwartau strike for the Canaries.
Norwich currently occupy 19th in the Championship having claimed 8 points from 9 games, scoring 11 goals in the process. Josh Sargent leads the scoring charts on 5, ahead of Jovon Makama who has score 2 goals. A number of players, including Jack Stacey and Kenny McLean, have contributed 1 assist each.
Bristol City are 10th in the Championship after a run of just 1 win in their last 5 matches. That victory came away from home at Sheffield Wednesday and in convincing fashion, running out 3-0 winners at Hillsborough. An own goal and strikes from Emil Riis Jakobsen and Anis Mehmeti ensured they left Yorkshire with maximum points.
Mehmeti was again on the scoresheet in the 3-1 home defeat to Oxford United before a point was gained at Preston North End thanks to a 0-0 draw. Rob Atkinson gave the Robins an 18th minute lead against Ipswich Town only for Jack Clarke to equalised and the game to end 1-1 before a second half Queens Park Rangers come back condemned Struber’s side to a 2-1 defeat at Ashton Gate despite Jakobsen finding the net after half an hour.
Bristol City have earned 13 points and scored 15 goals in their 9 league outings so far, with Anis Mehmeti and Emil Riis Jakobsen leading the scoring charts with 4 apiece. The Robins have conceded 10 goals at an average of 1.1 per match and have kept 3 clean sheets.
Norwich City have been dominant in this fixture over recent years, winning 10 and losing just 3 of the last 17 meetings. Two of those 3 defeats came last season as Bristol City, then led by Norwich boss Liam Manning, completed the double over the Canaries.
At Carrow Road, Anis Mehmeti and Nakhi Wells struck to hand the visitors a 2-0 win before Mark Sykes and another Wells strike gave the Robins a 2-1 win at Ashton Gate. The last time Norwich have tasted victory in this fixture was 4 games ago back in 2023, when an own goal and a 95th minute Adam Idah strike secured a 2-1 win in Bristol.
The last 17 meetings have seen Norwich score 27 times and Bristol City find the net just 16 times, meaning the games have averaged 2.5 goals per meeting.
