Match Prediction: Norwich City 2-1 Wrexham

Norwich City's recent form shows they can be a bit up and down, but they've got the knack for nicking wins away from home. They'll fancy their chances against Wrexham, who've struggled at home lately. Norwich's attack, led by the likes of Sargent and Kvistgaarden, could exploit Wrexham's shaky defence, especially after their recent losses.

Wrexham, on the other hand, have shown they can be dangerous on the break, as seen in their win against Millwall. But their overall form is a worry, and they'll need to be solid at the back to keep Norwich at bay. If they can get their act together, they might just pull off a surprise, but it's going to be tough.

Norwich have had a mixed bag recently, with two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five games. Their away form has been decent, but at home they’ve been patchy. They'll need to be sharp in front of goal and solid at the back to get the better of Wrexham.

The loss to Middlesbrough at home might still be lingering, but their wins against Blackburn and Portsmouth show they can still perform. If they can keep their heads and play their game, they should have enough to edge out Wrexham.

• Win: 2-0 vs Blackburn Rovers (A)

• Loss: 1-2 vs Middlesbrough (H)

• Win: 2-1 vs Portsmouth (A)

• Loss: 1-2 vs Millwall (H)

Wrexham's recent form has been a bit of a rollercoaster, with only one win in their last five games. Their home form is particularly concerning, with two losses and a draw in their last three home matches. They'll need to be at their best to get anything from this game.

The win against Millwall away from home shows they can be a threat, but they'll need to tighten up at the back. If they can find their form from that game, they might just cause an upset, but it's a big ask.

• Predicted lineup: Kovačević, Fisher, Medic, Darling, Chrisene, Topić, McLean, Crnac, Kvistgaarden, Diallo, Sargent

Norwich's predicted lineup suggests they'll look to control the midfield with Topic and McLean, while relying on Sargent and Kvistgaarden to provide the firepower in attack.

• Predicted lineup: Okonkwo, Cleworth, Coady, Doyle, Longman, Dobson, James, O’Brien, McClean, Moore, Hardie

Wrexham's predicted lineup indicates they'll aim to be solid at the back with Doyle, Cleworth, and Coady, while looking to hit Norwich on the break with Moore and Hardie.

• Kenny McLean vs George Dobson: McLean's control in midfield will be crucial for Norwich, while Dobson will need to disrupt him for Wrexham.

• Josh Sargent vs Conor Coady: Sargent's goal-scoring threat will be tested by Coady's defensive solidity.

• Kieffer Moore (Wrexham): Moore's physical presence and goal-scoring ability could be key for Wrexham.

• Mathias Kvistgaarden (Norwich City): Kvistgaarden's creativity and finishing could unlock Wrexham's defence.
