Norwich is on track despite the loss at Elland Road against Leeds last.
You who follow my tips know that I warned the team at Stryketipset – was streaked on Stryket to around 13% – and the team was about as good as I thought.
Stundtals actually impressed the “Canary Birds”.
But there was only one problem – Leeds goalkeeper Felix Wiedwald was so cruel in the goal.
That meant, it was enough for Leeds with the goal as Pontus Jansson’s nick – via the post – after corner of Pawel Cibicki.
It did not matter that Norwich had really nice chances through Alex Pritchard and Nelson Oliveira, and Oliveira would probably have received a penalty.
But despite winning in both ball possession and good goal chances, it eventually became 0 points.
Nevertheless, I think Norwich is one of the most interesting teams to follow during the “Christmas weekends”. You have an exciting offensive game with trion Oliveira, Maddison and Vasse Pritchard, who just returned from a bad injury.
Now a good midfielder in the series, Brentford is waiting.
Guests also like to play with a lot of possession, but look idle and only got 0-0 at home at the bottom of Barnsley.
Before that, they fell against a dull hull.
So the form is clearly doubtful and the attack star Lasse Vibe has been missing at the end. Not sure he’s playing on Friday either, he’s on his way away (will go under the January window) when his contract expires at the end of the season.
It has been astonishing about IFK Göteborg, but there is no chance he will go there when clubs like Aston Villa have shown interest.
Edit: Vibe has been training this week and is playable.
On the other hand, Brentford has trouble in the back line. New injury to Josh Clarke (18/1), right back, and natural replacement Henrik Dalsgaard (14/0) are likely not ready to start after injury concerns.
It is likely that midfielder Nico Yennaris will take the climb down from the midfield where he is at its best.
Brentford also misses Alan Judge
PREDICTION:Norwich win @ 2.45
