The football judgment of Norwich vs Millwall took place at 21:00 on August 9 within the British First Division. Bongdaplus analyzes forces information, expected squad, house odds, and prediction.
Norwich vs Millwall
Norwich has spent 2024/25 season disappointing, ending in the bottom half of the rankings after winning 14, drawing 15 and losing 17 out of 46 matches. After firing Johannes Hoff Thorup in April, the Carrow Road team appointed Liam Manning to be a new coach, who helped them to finish safely.
The Norwich squad made significant changes before the new season started, including the departure of Borja Saint, Angus Gunn, Onel Hernandez and Jacob Sorensen. In return, the home team also actively added personnel with Mathias Kvistgaarden, Mirko Topic, Jacob Wright and Jakov Medic are 4 of the 11 new players signed.
Norwich will enter the first match of the following season after the series of results is not very impressive in the starting stage when winning only 2, draw 3 and lost 2 in 7 friendly matches.
On the opposite yard, Millwall was 2 points behind the play-off group last season after winning 18, drew 12 and lost 16 of 46 matches in the First Division of the UK. The guest players ended in 9th and above in the last 4 seasons, so they would really want to make more efforts to be able to get in the knockout round this season.
Millwall can be satisfied with the results before her season when he won 4 victories in 6 matches (losing 2), including victory in the last 4 launches against Wimbledon, Bromley, Sutton and Estoril. They hope to continue the series of victories in the opening match, but that expectation may be reduced by the fact that Millwall has never defeated Norwich away since November 1968.
