Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting it's fairly unlikely that this match will serve up 4+ goals, and the odds and statistics align with our predictive algorithm on this one. Sheff Utd and Norwich haven't typically treated their fans to a high volume of goals of late, whether that be in the Championship individually or when going head-to-head. So, in the absence of a compelling favourite draw or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.30.
