NORWICH
Norwich have been dwelling in the relegation territory for the better part of the season. However, they have posted a series of impressive results in recent weeks that have significantly enhanced their chances of staying up. After sitting at the rock bottom literally from the start of the season, they have picked up two big wins against fellow relegation cell mates Watford and Everton and a draw at home to Crystal Palace in their Wednesday league match.
This run has lifted them from the bottom to 18th place. They actually could have gone higher up had they won against Palace but the draw was still quite good given the fact that they lost the reverse fixture 3-0.
The Canaries now face perhaps their toughest task of the season. They have lost 8 of their last 12 league games against City including back to back 5-0 losses the last two times they’ve met. They will need to up their game here to avoid further punishment from the visitors.
MANCHESTER CITY
After momentarily faltering with a 1-1 draw at Southampton just before the international break, City got back to business with a 2-0 win at home to Brentford on Wednesday night to not only restore normal service but significantly to build up a seemingly unassailable 9 point cushion at the top of the Premier League standings.
With Liverpool seemingly keeping pace with the Cityzens following their identical 2-0 over Leicester at Anfield on Thursday, with a game in hand, there is no room for error for Man City.
Pep Guardiola also have an eye on the Champions League last-16 game on Tuesday against Sporting Lisbon and as always he will play his usual game of musical chairs with his lineups. The ultimate priority here will of course be to get all three points on offer.

NORWICH VS MAN CITY PREDICTIONS
Norwich’s recent revival has been characterized by a marked improvement in their defence. They have only conceded more than a goal just once in their last six matches across all competitions. Granted, none of these teams are anywhere near the level of Man City but there have been some good habits they have picked that Den Smith will be looking to replicate here. We feel the opening half of this game will be tight and we are backing Under 1.5 First half goals @ 1.54 with M-bet as the first of our Premier League betting tips.
That said, it is difficult to imagine anything short of a City win. They have owned this matchup in recent years, winning 4 of the last 5 H2H matches, keeping and keeping clean sheets in 4 matches too. They seem to be getting their squad healthy again and we fancy them to hold Norwich scoreless in this game @ 1.61 with 22Bet Bonus as our final tip.
