Norwich begin their fourth straight season in the Championship following relegation from the Premier League in 2022 amid a determination at Carrow Road to get back amongst the elite.

Liam Manning has been brought in to oversee their promotion push, but plenty needs to be done following last season's 13th-place finish.

Millwall fared slightly better last term, coming in eighth, and they will also fancy their chances of finishing higher this time around.

Both will be looking to start the campaign on the right foot, so a lively contest can be expected in Norfolk this weekend.

Team news

Jovon Makama joined Norwich this week and is one of 11 new arrivals at Carrow Road. He and fellow new signing Mirko Topic will be pushing to make their debuts but Kenny McLean and Lucien Mahovo miss out through injury.

Alfie Doughty has been snapped up by Millwall from Luton in time to be available for this fixture. He joins fellow new recruits Josh Coburn, Zak Sturge, Max Crocombe, Massimo Luongo and Steven Benda on the list of those hoping to make their debuts this week.

The stats

Millwall's last win at Carrow Road came way back in 1968.

Six of the last eight meetings at Carrow Road have seen Norwich win & over 2.5 goals scored.

Millwall have lost four of their last five away league fixtures.

Millwall beat Norwich 3-1 at home last season, while this fixture at Carrow Road ended 2-1 to the Canaries.

Prediction

Millwall have a miserable record at Carrow Road and they are unlikely to end their winless streak in East Anglia which stretches back an incredible 57 years.

These two won their own home fixtures in their two meetings in the Championship last term and Norwich are fancied to continue that pattern with a victory on Saturday which sees both teams get on the scoresheet.

That outcome has occurred in four of the last five match-ups between these two and another lively encounter can be expected in this season-opener.

Both teams have scored in 13 of the last 20 meetings between these sides and there have been some pretty hefty scorelines along the way.

The goals often flow when these two lock horns and eight of the last 14 tussles have seen at least four goals scored in total.

You have to go back to November 2020 for the last time Millwall took a point away from Carrow Road and they look set to head back to London this weekend empty handed.

Back Norwich to win & both teams score at 29/10 with LiveScore Bet.
