Norwich City vs Rotherham United: prediction for the EFL Championship Week 37

The Canaries aim to win their sixth in a row at home!

A soon-to-be relegated Rotherham United will travel east to Carrow Road to face off against a rising Norwich City. Week 37 match will begin on Saturday, March 9, at 4pm CET.

Norwich City

A subpar last season stopped the constant cycle with Norwich City earning a promotion to the Premier League before going back to the EFL Championship. However, that was a blip on the radar, as the Canaries are back in the hunt.

Scrapped by Sunderland last week, Norwich is less than three points behind Hull City, who currently occupy the coveted sixth spot. Now, armed with a top-5 offense in the league, they will try and avenge the first round loss to their upcoming visitors.

Rotherham United

Rotherham United is nearly certain to go back to League One after two consecutive seasons in the EFL Championship, as the Millers need nothing short of a miracle to keep themselves in the second echelon of English football.

The 24th ranked offense and defense, a road “0-5” blowout to Coventry City to begin this week, 19 points down in the race with only ten remaining games - even if Rotherham somehow won every game, it would be hard to stay out of the bottom three. But now, with the trip to the east, they can at least sweep a season series with Norwich City.

Prediction ⚽️

As Rotherham United escaped the homestand with a “2-1” victory in September, the Week 37 clash will happen at Carrow Road, where Norwich City won five games in a row.

The Canaries can jump into the playoffs race with a win against an outmatched opponent, so we will side with the hosts going for a convincing victory, covering a (-2) spread with 2.45 odds 🔥.
