The team's defensive struggles are evident, conceding 11 goals in these matches, with a particularly heavy 4-0 defeat to Crystal Palace in the League Cup. However, their attack shows promise, scoring 8 goals, including a high-scoring 4-3 victory over Stevenage in the League Cup. In the Championship, Norwich has managed just one win in their last four games, contributing to their current 15th position in the league table. Their goal difference of -3 and the fact that both teams have scored in 50% of these matches suggest a team that can be involved in exciting, open contests. Interestingly, their games have been evenly split between high-scoring affairs (over 2.5 goals) and tighter encounters (under 2.5 goals), indicating a certain unpredictability to Norwich's performances.

Watford's recent form has been impressive, with a notable run of four consecutive wins across all competitions before their most recent two games. Their offensive prowess is evident, having scored 13 goals in their last six matches, including two high-scoring games: a 5-0 victory over Milton Keynes Dons in the League Cup and a 3-0 win against Stoke City in the Championship. Defensively, they've been solid, conceding only 3 goals in 6 games and keeping 3 clean sheets. Despite their recent loss to Sheffield United and draw with Coventry City, Watford's overall performance has been strong, as reflected in their 5th position in the league table with 10 points from 5 games. Their goal difference of +10 and average of 2.17 goals scored per game highlight their attacking threat, while their defensive record of just 0.5 goals conceded per game demonstrates their solidity at the back.

Norwich

Norwich City's recent home form has been inconsistent, with their last six games at Carrow Road resulting in one win, three draws, and two losses. The team has struggled defensively, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game while scoring 1.33 goals per game. A notable high-scoring match was their 4-3 victory against Stevenage in the League Cup, which stands out as their only win in this period. The Canaries have managed just one clean sheet in their last six home games, coming in a goalless draw against Leeds United. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 67% of these matches, indicating that Norwich's games at home tend to be competitive affairs. With an even split between games going over and under 2.5 goals, and a total goals average of 3, fans can typically expect entertaining matches at Carrow Road.

Watford

Watford's recent away form presents a mixed picture, with the team showing inconsistency in their performances. In their last six away matches, Watford has managed two wins, one draw, and three losses, indicating a struggle to maintain consistent form on the road. Notably, the team has been involved in several high-scoring games, with four out of the six matches seeing over 2.5 goals scored. Their attacking prowess is evident with an average of 1.67 goals scored per game, but defensive vulnerabilities are apparent as they concede an average of 2 goals per match and have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of these games. The total goals average of 3.67 per game suggests that Watford's away matches are often entertaining affairs for neutral spectators. Despite their inconsistent away form, Watford's overall league position (5th) and points tally (10 from 5 games) indicate that they are performing well in the Championship, likely bolstered by stronger home performances.
