The upcoming match between Norwich City and Oxford United is set to be an interesting one. Norwich City, coached by Johannes Hoff Thorup, has the advantage of playing at home where they usually do not face strong opposition from the away team's supporters. With the home field advantage, Norwich City has a good chance of winning this match.
On the other hand, Oxford United, under the leadership of Gary Rowett, will face a tough challenge on the field. The away team struggles to score goals when playing outside their own stadium, and their defense tends to be shaky on the road. In contrast, Norwich City appears to have the upper hand in terms of both offensive and defensive capabilities based on the goals scored and conceded in previous matches.
Looking at the recent head-to-head encounters, Oxford United managed to secure one victory over Norwich City. However, the overall goal statistics suggest that this upcoming match may not have many goals, given the scoring averages of both teams this season. Norwich City has been more prolific in front of goal with an average of 1.6 goals scored per game, while Oxford United has only been able to net an average of 1 goal per game.
In terms of current form, Norwich City seems to be in a better position compared to Oxford United. The home team's defense may have some weaknesses, but their overall performance is stronger than that of the visiting team. Oxford United will need to overcome their struggles away from home and find a way to breach Norwich City's defense if they want to come away with a positive result.
Overall, Norwich City is the favorite to win this match based on their home advantage, better form, and goal-scoring capabilities. However, given the unpredictable nature of football, anything can happen on the day of the match. Fans can expect an exciting and potentially low-scoring game between these two teams.
