Goal Statistics

Birmingham City's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because Norwich City have conceded in each of their last 11 Championship matches. A PG of 1.7 for C. Davies's side suggests that run should continue.

Goals have been an issue for Norwich City of late. It has been 9 Championship matches since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.0 suggests they'll have problems ending that run on Saturday afternoon against Birmingham City.
