Recent form
Norwich
Norwich City have been experiencing a mixed run of form in recent weeks, with their last six Championship matches yielding one win, four draws, and one loss. The Canaries have struggled to secure victories, drawing four of their last five games, which has contributed to their mid-table position of 10th in the league. Notably, Norwich have been involved in a number of close encounters, with five of their last six matches ending with a scoreline of 1-1 or 1-0. The standout result in this period was their 4-2 victory over Stoke City, which was the only game to feature more than 2.5 goals. Despite their inability to keep clean sheets in their last six outings, Norwich have maintained a positive goal difference, scoring 8 goals while conceding 7. The team's tendency to share the spoils is evident, with both teams scoring in 83% of these matches, suggesting competitive but ultimately inconclusive performances.
Sheffield Wednesday
Sheffield Wednesday's recent form has been inconsistent, with the Owls struggling to maintain momentum in the Championship. They have won just two of their last six matches, suffering four defeats in the process. The team's defensive frailties are evident, conceding 10 goals in six games, with a particularly heavy 4-0 loss to Burnley standing out. On a positive note, their most recent outing saw them secure an impressive 3-0 away victory against Plymouth Argyle, ending a three-match losing streak. The Owls have been involved in high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their last six games featuring over 2.5 goals. Despite their mixed form, Sheffield Wednesday have managed to keep two clean sheets during this period, showcasing their potential for defensive solidity when at their best.

Recent home/away form
Norwich
Norwich City's recent home form has been mixed, with the Canaries struggling to find consistency at Carrow Road. In their last six home matches, they have managed two wins, two draws, and two losses, mirroring their overall form in the last six games. Notably, Norwich have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of these matches, conceding at least one goal in each game. There have been two particularly high-scoring encounters: a commanding 5-1 victory over Swansea and a 4-2 win against Stoke City, showcasing Norwich's attacking potential. However, they also suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat to Brighton in the FA Cup, highlighting their defensive vulnerabilities. With an average of 3.5 total goals per game and both teams scoring in 67% of these matches, Norwich's home fixtures have been entertaining affairs for the fans, albeit with mixed results for the team.
Sheffield Wednesday
Sheffield Wednesday's away form presents a mixed picture, with the Owls alternating between wins and losses in their last six matches on the road. They have managed to secure three clean sheets during this period, demonstrating defensive resilience in their victories. However, their goal difference remains negative, largely due to two heavy defeats against Burnley (4-0) and Leeds United (3-0). These high-scoring losses contrast sharply with their wins, where they've not conceded a single goal. Interestingly, 67% of their away games have seen over 2.5 goals, suggesting that Sheffield Wednesday's matches tend to be eventful affairs for spectators. Despite their inconsistent form, the team have shown an ability to bounce back from defeats, never losing more than one match in a row during this stretch.
