Preview
Norwich City and Birmingham City face at Carrow Road, in a match for the 6th round of the Championship. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 3 wins in the last 3 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 18‑01‑2019, in a match for the Championship, Norwich City won by (3‑1). In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Norwich

The home team is currently in the 11th position of the league, with 7 points won, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Derby County, by (0‑1). In the last match, they won in an away match against Rotherham United, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 21 conceded. Norwich City has won 2, tied 1 and lost 7 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition.

Norwich City heads into this round motivated as a consequence of the victory against Rotherham, by 1-2, putting an end to the three consecutive games without winning in this competition: the goals of the team were signed by Jordan Hugill and Michael Ihiekwe (goal in own goal). Usually the group headed by the German Daniel Farke plays in 4-3-3 favoring the maintenance of the ball possession and the organized attacks: Lukas Rupp and Marco Stiepermann are the main game organizers, being both owners of great quality of passing and vision of game. Finnish Teemu Pukki is the highlight of Norwich with 1 goal and 1 assist. For this game the coach cannot count on Kieran Dowell and Sam Byram, both with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Tim Krul, Xavi Quintillà, Ben Gibson, Grant Hanley, Emiliano Buendía, Max Aarons, Oliver Skipp, Lukas Rupp, Todd Cantwell, Teemu Pukki, Jordan Hugill.

Analysis Birmingham

The away team is currently in the 15th position of the league, with 6 points won, after 1 win, 3 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Stoke City, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Sheffield Wednesday, by (0‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 13 conceded; against 2 wins, 7 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 18 goals scored and 25 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Birmingham City has tied 5 and lost 5. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 15 of the last 21 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 9 of their 21 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Birmingham City heads into this match with a 0-1 defeat in the reception to Sheffield Wednesday, adding in this way the fourth straight game without winning in this competition. In this away game, coach Aitor Karanka should keep the team in the usual 4-2-3-1 with Scott Hogan being Birmingham City's most offensive reference. On the other hand, left winger Jérémie Bela is the best finisher in Birmingham City with 2 goals scored. For this match the coach won't be able to count on Josh McEachran and Lukas Jutkiewicz, players who are recovering from injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Neil Etheridge, Harlee Dean, Kristian Pedersen, George Friend, Marc Roberts, Maxime Colin, Iván Sánchez, Adam Clayton, Ivan Šunjić, Jonathan Leko, Scott Hogan.
