Prediction

  • Norwich got off to an alarmingly disorganised start under new manager Johannes Thorup last weekend, losing 2-0 away from home against a newly-promoted Oxford United side.
  • The Canaries beat Stevenage 4-3 in the Carabao Cup in midweek, but the nature of that victory will do little to ease fears at Carrow Road.
  • Blackburn's season has started in a way that even the most optimistic of fans couldn't have expected.
  • Rovers cruised to a dominant 4-2 home win against newly-promoted Derby last Friday, before hammering League One new boys Stockport County 6-1 in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night. The visitors have plenty of momentum heading into this game.

    Norwich need a turn around on their poor start at Oxford. Being at home to Blackburn, whose footballers are being linked with away moves, should provide an entertaining 1-1 draw
