The Norfolk team did not last long in the top division of England. Only last year Norwich won the English Championship and it returned back in exactly one year. Over the 34 rounds of the current championship, the canaries were able to win five victories and six world ones, which brought the team 21 points. The gap from the safe zone is already ten points, which will be difficult for hosts to overcome, but rather impossible. Team indicators correspond to the occupied place. The yellow-green has the worst line of defense, which conceded 63 goals, while the attack scored only 26 times. The main goalscorer of the team is the Finnish legionnaire Pukki (11 goals). The big break aggravated the already terrible tournament position of the team. In the summer session, Daniel Farke’s wards lost all games in the Premier League and also lost in the quarterfinal of the Manchester United Country Cup (1: 2 dv). The outsider lost all three matches of July and in two matches it could not score – Arsenal (0: 4), Brighton (0: 1) and Watford (1: 2). Cantwell, Hanley, Leitner, Biram and Zimmermann will not be able to take part in today’s game.
Alaves had a good start to the current championship, which resulted in a good margin of safety. Some 20 years ago, the team performed brilliantly in the European arena, but today it does not rise above the middle of the Primera standings, moreover, with such indicators there is every chance to part with the elite division. After 34 rounds, the Bean Destroyers won nine wins and eight draws, which brought the team 35 points and 16-th place. The attack of the team scored 32 goals, 11 of which were on the account of Peres, and 10 on Joselu. The big crown pause had a very bad effect on the glorious, who beat Real Sociedad (2-0) and lost six fights. In July, the wards of Asier Garitano lost to Granada (0: 2) and Valladolid (0: 1), for which we made a prediction. In today’s game Duarte and Pacheco will not be able to enter the field.
