Norwich vs Millwall

Current streaks

Recent form

Norwich

Norwich City's recent form has been somewhat inconsistent, with a mixed bag of results in their pre-season friendlies. The Canaries have managed only one win in their last six matches, drawing three and losing two. Their sole victory came against Northampton, where they scored their highest tally of three goals. Defensively, Norwich have struggled, conceding seven goals across these six games, including a heavy 3-0 defeat to Olympiacos. The team has kept only one clean sheet during this period, in a goalless draw with ADO Den Haag. Norwich's goal-scoring has been a concern, averaging less than a goal per game, with 67% of their matches seeing under 2.5 goals. Currently on a five-game winless streak, the 12th-placed side will be keen to improve their form as they head into the new season.

Millwall

Millwall have shown impressive form in their recent friendly matches, winning their last four games after suffering two consecutive losses. The Lions have been particularly prolific in front of goal, scoring an impressive 16 goals in their last six matches, averaging 2.67 goals per game. Their 6-2 victory over Sutton United stands out as a high-scoring affair. Defensively, Millwall have kept two clean sheets in this period, although they've conceded in 67% of their games. Notably, all six of their recent matches have seen over 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards high-scoring encounters. Despite finishing 11th in the Championship last season, Millwall's pre-season form suggests they could be a team to watch in the upcoming campaign, particularly if they can maintain their attacking prowess whilst tightening up their defence.

Recent home/away form

Norwich

Norwich's recent home form has been mixed, with a concerning trend of two consecutive losses in their latest matches. The Canaries have struggled defensively, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last six home games and conceding an average of 2.17 goals per game. However, they have shown attacking prowess, scoring 11 goals in these fixtures, including a high-scoring 4-2 victory against Cardiff City. Notably, two-thirds of their matches have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting entertaining encounters for spectators. The standout game was undoubtedly the 8-goal thriller against Portsmouth, which Norwich lost 5-3, highlighting both their offensive capabilities and defensive vulnerabilities. Despite their recent struggles, Norwich have managed to secure two wins in this period, demonstrating their potential to bounce back at Carrow Road.

Millwall

Millwall have shown impressive form away from home in their recent fixtures, winning four consecutive matches after suffering two initial losses. Their goal-scoring prowess has been particularly noteworthy, netting 16 goals in their last six away games, with a remarkable average of 2.67 goals per match. The Lions' 6-2 victory over Sutton United stands out as a high-scoring encounter, contributing significantly to their positive goal difference of 8.

Interestingly, all of their recent away matches have seen over 2.5 goals, with both teams scoring in 67% of these games, suggesting exciting, high-scoring affairs for spectators. Despite their strong pre-season form, it's worth noting that their last competitive away match in the Championship resulted in a 3-1 defeat to Burnley.
