Chelsea vs. Norwich City 10/23/21 Premier League Soccer Pick, Odds, and Predictions

Chelsea and Norwich City face off on Saturday in an English Premier League showdown at Stamford Bridge. When these two teams faced off in July of 2020, Chelsea came away with the 1-0 victory. 

Chelsea have looked quite impressive this season and they currently sit in 1st place in the standings having picked up 19 points. Chelsea has looked good in the Premier League and during the Champions League too. In a midweek game, Chelsea came away with the 4-0 victory against Malmo. Jorginho was the top player in that game scoring two goals by penalty. On the season, Chelsea has scored 16 goals total while the defense has given up only three goals. Romelu Lukaku has been the top player this season scoring three goals. In this game, if the defense is strong again, Chelsea should have no issue winning this game. 

On the other side of this matchup is Norwich City who sit in last place in the standings having picked up two points. Norwich City needs to start winning games, or they won’t be playing next year in the Premier League. Over the last three games, Norwich City has scored zero goals total, but in two of the games they have also given up zero goals. Norwich City has scored two goals total this season while the defense has given up 16 goals. Teemu Pukki has been the only goal scorer for this team. 

Norwich City’s defense has been good as of late, and I expect Chelsea is going to actually have issues scoring in this game. Norwich City is going to struggle to score and it would be shocking if they find the back of the net. Back the under to cash.
