Canaries and Owls Set for Midweek Championship Clash at Carrow Road

Norwich

Sheffield Wed
Championship, Venue: Carrow Road (Norwich, England)
Kickoff:
11 Mar 2025
Battle of Mid-Table Contenders Looms Large
Norwich City and Sheffield Wednesday are gearing up for what should be an intriguing midweek matchup at Carrow Road next March. Both teams have shown similar form recently, each winning 3 of their last 10 matches. The Canaries, under Johannes Thorup's guidance, have been slightly more consistent with 4 draws compared to Sheffield Wednesday's 5 losses under Danny Röhl. Norwich has been finding the net more regularly too, outscoring the Owls 14-12 over their last ten outings. Home advantage could prove crucial – Norwich has collected 8 points from their last 5 home games while scoring an impressive 11 goals in the process.

Wednesday's Road Warriors Seeking Another Away Triumph
Don't count out Sheffield Wednesday just yet! The Owls have been surprisingly effective on their travels recently. They've won 3 of their last 6 away matches – a pretty decent 50% win rate on the road. Their recent 3-0 demolition of Plymouth away from home shows they know how to perform when they're not in front of their own fans. In fact, all three of their recent victories have come on their travels, with additional wins at Swansea and QPR. Can they make Carrow Road their next conquest? They've certainly got the blueprint for away success.
History Suggests a Close Encounter
The head-to-head record between these two storied clubs couldn't be much tighter. Norwich holds a slight historical edge with 6 wins to Wednesday's 5, with 8 draws completing the picture. Even more remarkably, both teams have scored exactly 28 goals against each other over these meetings. Talk about evenly matched! The Owls will take confidence from their 2-0 victory in the reverse fixture back in November 2024. That said, Carrow Road is a different proposition altogether, isn't it? The bookies have Norwich as favorites with a 44.7% chance of victory compared to Wednesday's 26.9%, but history suggests this one could easily end all square.

Goals on the Menu?
With both teams showing they can find the net – and concede – with regularity, fans might be in for an entertaining evening. Norwich's 5-1 thrashing of Swansea earlier in the season showed their attacking potential, while Wednesday have netted 7 times in their last 6 away games. The Canaries have been leakier at the back than they'd like, conceding 12 in their last 10 games. Meanwhile, the Owls have shipped 16 goals during the same period. Put simply – both defenses have shown vulnerability. When these teams meet, there's rarely a shortage of action, and their identical 28-goal head-to-head scoring record suggests we could see the net bulging a few times.
