Norwich City vs. Millwall  Prediction and Match Preview

Hoping to make it back-to-back wins in the Championship, Norwich City will welcome Millwall to Carrow Road on Friday.

Dean Smith‘s side put up their first league victory of the season on Tuesday, after a slow start, while their visitors salvaged a draw away at Swansea City in dramatic fashion to move onto seven points from four outings.

Norwich City have depth throughout their squad, although Smith may opt to only make minor changes following their win on Tuesday, with Joshua Sargent again set to lead the attack in the absence of Teemu Pukki after netting his first league goal of the season in that game.

Marcelino Nunez has quickly established himself in the midfield following his switch from Universidad Catolica, while fellow summer arrival Gabriel Sara is also vying for a starting berth.

With Dimitris Giannoulis, Jacob Sorensen, Sam McCallum and Sam Byram all sidelined, Kenny McLean may again operate as a makeshift left-back, with Todd Cantwell likely to play further forward on that flank, while Grant Hanley and Andrew Omobamidele have been Smith’s preferred centre-back pairing in recent weeks with Ben Gibson reduced to the bench.

Millwall will remain without attackers Mason Bennett and Tom Bradshaw due to injuries, likely leaving Benik Afobe to spearhead the attack at Carrow Road.

Andreas Voglsammer could be in line for a first start up front, after coming off the bench away at Swansea following his arrival from Union Berlin.

Charlie Cresswell, Jake Cooper and Murray Wallace should again line up across the back three, with George Saville vying to come back into the midfield in place of either Billy Mitchell or Jamie Shackleton.

Norwich City possible starting lineup:
Krul; Aarons, Omobamidele, Hanley, McClean; Sara, Gibbs, Nunez; Sinani, Sargent, Cantwell
