Norwich City vs Millwall Prediction

Both sides have been among the most impressive in the Championship this season and they will be hoping to maintain their form to launch their promotion bids.

Having suffered an immediate relegation from the Premier League, Norwich City will have ambitions of going back to the top-flight, and their bright start to the campaign suggests that this might be the case.

Millwall currently sit outside the playoff places and will be aiming to secure a win here to get into the top six at the expense of their hosts.

The two sides might, however, have to settle for a share of the spoils in a score draw.

Prediction: Norwich City 1-1 Millwall
