Norwich City and Liverpool face off on Saturday in their first English Premier League game of the season at Turf Moor. Liverpool has either won or played to a draw in their last 14 matchups against Norwich City. The last win for Norwich City came all the way back in 1994.
Norwich City only spent one season down in the second tier of England Soccer before moving back up to the Premier League. Todd Cantwell and Teemu Pukki are the star players for Norwich City, and they are going to need both players to have their best games in this one if they want a chance to win this game. Norwich City has a big fight ahead of them to try and not be relegated, but even a point in this game would go a long way. Norwich City was busy heading into this season but they looked impressive in all the games except the last one. In that last game, Norwich City played Newcastle, and the offense couldn’t get anything going as they were defeated by 3-0.
On the other side of this matchup is Liverpool who dealt with a lot of injuries last season and that led to some of the struggles last year. Liverpool was pretty quiet with improving their team but they did bring in Ibrahima Konate who is going to really help the defense of this team this year. Liverpool was busy heading into this season and there were some really mixed results. This is a team that lost to Hertha and played to a draw against the Athletic Club. In the last game against Osasuna, Liverpool did find some offensive success winning 3-1.
I expect Liverpool is going to run up the score in this game, but I also think Norwich City is going to score a goal or two on their own behalf. Look for this game to be high scoring and for the over to cash.
