Competition: Championship

Market: Goal to be scored in both halves

Odds: 7/10 @ BetUS

Hoping to widen their buffer at the top of the table on Monday night, Coventry will travel to Carrow Road when they meet a resurgent Norwich.

Starting with the hosts, while Norwich might have opened up the 2025/26 campaign in the midst of what was a record-breaking rut, the Canaries have come roaring back in a sensational fashion on either side of getting the New Year underway. Last seen putting in a stunning performance as they stormed their way to a 5-0 romp away at West Brom, the Norfolk-based outfit are certainly enjoying life under Philippe Clement’s guidance. With the mood around Carrow Road at a season-high, the former Rangers boss has seen his resurgent squad come skyrocketing out of the drop zone. Extending on their FA Cup adventure earlier in the month as they secured a 5-1 victory against Walsall, Norwich have won all of their previous three domestic appearances across all competitions by an aggregate score of 12-2. With their stellar purple patch underlined by a 2-1 win away at play-off contenders Wrexham on January 11th, it should also be noted that Monday’s hosts have won four of their last five outings.

As for the visitors, while Coventry might have suffered play-off heartbreak last season, the Sky Blues have only continued to shatter a string of records this time around. Despite suffering a four-match winless run across all competitions on either side of opening 2026, Frank Lampard’s men hold a three-point buffer over the chasing pack. With their sights set on clinching an iconic Premier League return this season, the former Chelsea boss has seen his squad claim an essential boost over the past week. Landing consecutive 2-1 victories against Millwall and Leicester, Coventry will be desperate to make another title statement here. However, suffering an action-packed 3-2 loss against Birmingham earlier in the month, Lampard’s side will know the importance of claiming some defensive steel. Getting 2026 underway with a 1-1 stalemate against Charlton, the Championship leaders have recorded just a sole clean sheet from any of their last eight straight outings.
