Norwich City hosts Aston Villa in round 17 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Tuesday, December 14th at Carrow Road (Norwich)
In the last round, Norwich City lost to Manchester United at home (0-1). The Canaries looked very good against the background of a stronger opponent. It is noteworthy that the Red Devils scored the winning goal only from the penalty spot. The Yellows are again at the bottom of the standings with ten points scored. The gap to the saving 17th position is only three points. At the same time, the bookmakers give very small coefficients on the fact that Norwich will go to the Championship. Nobody believes in the Canaries. In eight home matches, they earned only five points (the worst result in the Premier League). All the home results of Norwich City are as follows: one victory, two draws, and three defeats with a goal difference of 5-12. There is no team in England that scores less at home!

Aston Villa visited Anfield in the last match. Given the strength and current shape of Liverpool, the Lions can add that match to their assets despite a 1-0 defeat. They looked very dignified and conceded only from the penalty spot in the 67th minute. In the previous five rounds, the Villains lost only two times and gained three victories. It is noteworthy that the defeats were recorded in the matches against Liverpool and Manchester City. After 16 rounds, the Lions have 19 points and are on the 13th line in the standings. With a successful combination of circumstances (and a victory in the upcoming round), Aston Villa may even be in 9th position. The gap to it is only three points. Aston Villa's overall away results are as follows: two victories and six defeats with a goal difference of 7-14.
The last two head-to-head matches of Norwich and Aston Villa ended with victories for the Lions. In six out of seven away games, the Villains didn’t score more than one goal. Norwich has not scored more than one goal in 16 of the last 17 home games. Not so long ago, Dean Smith was fired from Aston Villa, and Steven Gerrard was appointed in his place. Of course, the coach of the Canaries is now extremely motivated, and he will try to convey this attitude to his new charges. Actually, they don’t have any problems with motivation because they need to leave the relegation zone. Norwich scores little at home and concedes a lot. The same goes for Aston Villa in away matches. Considering that now the teams will have a very tight schedule, they probably will not work like dogs for the sake of victory (although both sides need it).
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
