Last-placed Norwich City host Chelsea in their upcoming Premier League fixture on Thursday night.
The home team have suffered four consecutive defeats in league fixtures and remain five points from safety. Ivan Toney's hat-trick for Brentford condemned them to a 3-1 home loss last week as Teemu Pukki bagged a consolation goal in injury time.
Chelsea, on the other hand, have secured three wins in a row. They scored four times in the second half to secure a 4-0 win over Burnley last week. They find themselves firmly placed third in the standings, five points ahead of fourth-placed Arsenal but 10 points behind second-placed Liverpool.
Norwich City vs Chelsea Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
Norwich City vs Chelsea Prediction
Norwich have fallen out of form yet again and after a run of four games without a defeat across all competitions between January 15 and February 9, they have suffered five losses in a row. Despite home advantage, it is very unlikely that they can put up a challenge against the in-form Blues.
The visiting side have managed to keep four clean sheets in their last five games across all competitions and are certainly the favorites in this clash between the two sides from the extreme ends of the table.
Chelsea are back in action against Newcastle United on Sunday and Thomas Tuchel might choose to rest a few first-team players here. Though they might not be able to replicate the scoreline from the reverse fixture, the Blues should be able to record a comfortable win here.
Prediction: Norwich City 0-3 Chelsea
