Ladbrokes' football tip - Thursday, September 17, 2026: Norwich to score against Man City

Ladbrokes' Carabao Cup tip - Thursday, September 17, 2026

Norwich to score in Man City vs Norwich

Norwich head to the Etihad Stadium for Thursday evening’s Carabao Cup tie, and the visitors finding the net looks an interesting angle.

Man City have regularly conceded to lower-league opponents in domestic cup competitions across the last two seasons. They allowed Swansea to score during last season’s Carabao Cup run, while Exeter and Southampton also found the net against them in the FA Cup.

That pattern extends to the previous campaign, when Leyton Orient and Plymouth scored against City in the FA Cup and Championship side Watford struck in the Carabao Cup.

Norwich also arrive with encouraging attacking numbers. They are averaging more than two goals per game across their Championship and Carabao Cup fixtures this season, including six goals in two matches in this competition.

City remain formidable opposition, but their recent record against teams from outside the Premier League means there is enough to like about Norwich to score.

For those interested, Ladbrokes also shared a Manchester City vs Norwich bet builder, with a win for the holders included within that.
