On Tue Aug 30th, in week 7, Birmingham City will play host to Norwich City in a meeting of these two Championship teams.

In their last match they recorded a 0-1 loss against Wigan Athletic. Nathan Broadhead struck first for Wigan Athletic in the 83rd minute, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else At the end of 90 a dissapointed Birmingham City couldn’t manage to score, and Wigan Athletic took the shutout win. Birmingham City looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches, while norwich City sits at 8th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 2-0 shutout win against Millwall. Josh Sargent scored the first goal for Norwich City in the 50th minute, then Josh Sargent added another in the 75th minute on a feed from Kieran Dowell In the end, Millwall was frustrated by Norwich City’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Norwich City ended the match with the shutout victory. Norwich City is looking for direction having 2 win and 2 losses in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Josh Sargent has been the most effective weapon for Norwich City lately. The American attacker has netted 3 goals in his last 5 matches. Przemyslaw Płacheta and Scott Hogan are the top scorers for Birmingham City in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
