Norwich

Norwich City's recent form has been a mixed bag, with only one win in their last six matches across all competitions. The team is currently struggling in 19th position in the Championship, having collected just one point from their first two league games. Their defensive record is a concern, conceding an average of 2.17 goals per game and failing to keep a clean sheet in any of their last six matches. However, their attacking output has been more promising, scoring an average of 1.5 goals per game. Notably, their recent League Cup match against Stevenage was a high-scoring affair, ending 4-3 in Norwich's favor. With 67% of their games seeing both teams score and over 2.5 goals, Norwich's matches have been entertaining for neutral spectators, averaging 3.67 total goals per game.

Sheffield United

Sheffield United is showing promising form with an unbeaten run in their last six games, including four wins and two draws. Their offensive prowess is particularly notable, having scored an impressive 15 goals in these matches, averaging 2.5 goals per game. Two high-scoring games stand out: a 4-2 victory over Wrexham in the League Cup and a 4-1 win against Harrogate Town in a friendly. While their defense has been somewhat leaky, conceding in 83% of these games, the team's overall goal difference remains positive at +8. The Blades have demonstrated their ability to compete in high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their recent matches featuring over 2.5 goals. Despite their current 14th position in the league, Sheffield United's recent form suggests they could be poised for an upward trajectory in the Championship.

Recent home/away form

Norwich

Norwich's recent home form shows a mixed bag of results, with no clear winning or losing streak. Their last six home games have yielded one win, three draws, and two losses, indicating inconsistent performances. The team has been involved in some high-scoring encounters, particularly the thrilling 4-3 victory over Stevenage in the League Cup. Despite struggling in their current league position (19th), Norwich has shown an ability to find the net, averaging 1.5 goals per game. However, their defensive record is concerning, conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game. The majority of their matches (67%) have seen both teams score and go over 2.5 goals, suggesting exciting, open games for spectators but potential defensive vulnerabilities for Norwich.

Sheffield United

Sheffield United's recent away form has been impressive, with a remarkable run of five consecutive wins and one draw in their last six games. The team has been prolific in front of goal, scoring 14 times at an average of 2.33 goals per game, while maintaining a solid defense, conceding only 0.67 goals per game. Their 4-1 victory against Harrogate Town stands out as a particularly high-scoring match. The Blades have kept two clean sheets during this period and have shown a tendency for high-scoring games, with 67% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals. Despite their strong recent form, their current league position (14th) suggests they may have had a slow start to the Championship season.
