Chelsea Vs Norwich City Premier League 2021-22
Date: October 23, 2021
Time: 05:00 PM (IST)
Venue: Stamford Bridge
In-game week eight, the Blues defeated Brentford 1-0, while Norwich earned their second point of the season against Brighton & Hove Albion. On the day, Ben Chilwell’s peach of a goal after 45 minutes was all that separated the two sides, and the Blues followed it up with a dominating Champions League performance against Malmo, in which Jorginho scored two penalties and Kai Havertz and Andreas Christensen also scored in a 4-0 triumph.
Chelsea may not be top of their Champions League group, but they do lead the Premier League with 19 points out of a possible 24 and the certainty that at least one of Manchester United or Liverpool will lose points on Sunday. Sixteen goals scored – an average of two per game – is hardly the most prolific record in the Premier League, but a paltry three goals surrendered at the other end of the pitch epitomisesTuchel’s team’s new-found defensive fortitude. Tuchel’s side has also scored nine goals at home this season. Chelsea’s ambitions of keeping up with Manchester City in goal scoring may have been crushing due to injuries to Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner in midweek; But with the pursuing pack closing in, only a dominating win over the woeful Canaries would suffice.
Lukaku and Werner were both injured during Chelsea’s Champions League win against Malmo, the former with a twisted ankle and the latter with a hamstring strain. Because neither guy is anticipated to make the cut this weekend, Kai Havertz may lead the line with Mason Mount and Hakim Ziyech as backups, while Christian Pulisic remains a huge question mark. Given the tight schedule, Ruben Loftus-Cheek may push his way back into the midfield ahead of N’GoloKante, while Malang Sarr and TrevohChalobah should also be in contention to return to the backline.

While Norwich City’s search for their first Premier League victory continues, the Canaries have produced two decent results in recent weeks, drawing goalless draws with Burnley and Brighton & Hove Albion respectively. Given Brighton’s strong start to the season, last weekend’s stalemate with the Seagulls drew the eye, but despite the fact that back-to-back clean sheets may be regarded as a plus, it has done nothing to improve their position in the standings. Indeed, Norwich’s lowest total so far is two points from a possible 24, as they stay anchored at the bottom of the league – four points away from safety – and have only scored two goals throughout their dreadful return to the big time.

Since TeemuPukki’s goal against Watford, the Canaries have gone four games without a goal in the Premier League, and they have failed to score away from home this season, with their last top-flight win coming in November 2019. Billy Gilmour will miss Norwich’s match against his parent club due to injury, but the Chelsea loanee has been linked with a January return to Stamford Bridge. Todd Cantwell (Achilles) and PrzemyslawPlacheta (fitness) are expected to return to the Canaries, while Sam Byram and Christoph Zimmermann are out for the time being. Farke is unlikely to make any changes from the team that held Brighton to a 0-0 draw last time out, with Pukki and Josh Sargent maintaining their top-flight pairing.

While Norwich City’s search for their first Premier League victory continues, the Canaries have produced two decent results in recent weeks, drawing goalless draws with Burnley and Brighton & Hove Albion respectively. Chelsea has attacking quality on the bench to help them breach the Canaries’ resistance, even without Lukaku and Werner leading the charge. Farke may take plenty of positives from his team’s previous two games, but their offensive difficulties persist, and they are unlikely to return from London with much to show for it. We predict Chelsea will defeat Norwich City by a score of 2-0.
