Norwich v Tottenham betting

Norwich take on Tottenham on Tuesday evening and both teams will be looking to spread some festive cheer to their fans. This clash is between two clubs performing very well in the league, as Spurs sit in 3rd and Norwich in 9th, and this will be a tough away fixture for Harry Redknapp. Plenty of goals have been scored in matches involving these two teams this season, so can we expect more of the same here?

Norwich

Norwich have been performing very well in the Premier League this season, after gaining back to back promotions from League One. Many thought they would struggle, but Paul Lambert has brought in some hungry players from the lower leagues and he is getting the best out of them at the moment. Currently sitting in the top half of the table and with the 5th best home record in the division, they definitely have a chance of staying up. Despite their good season, the Canaries are clear underdogs against Spurs and priced as well as 5.0 from Betfred. This is perhaps as they have struggled against the better teams in the division, losing to Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal and Man United. However, they do have two strikers who know where the back of the net is in Grant Holt and Steve Morison, and they have 13 goals between them in the league so far. Holt in particular is a great bet to score at any time during the game with odds of 3.5 available from Skybet.

Tottenham

Tottenham are having a great season in the league so far, they currently sit 3rd with a game in hand that could take them within 6 points of the top. Last time out against Chelsea they played some good football in the first half but really seemed to struggle to get the ball in the second half when they lost Van Der Vaart to injury and went 4-4-2. However, Norwich do pay a 4-4-2 system, so Harry Redknapp may be inclined to go with the same system on Tuesday and should get more success from it. Like Norwich, Tottenham have been far from goal-shy this season, and Adebayor in particular has found the back of the net consistently. The former Arsenal player has bagged 9 in 14 games and is looking a great price at 5.5 with Bet365 to open the scoring. As mentioned earlier, Norwich have struggled against bigger teams so far, and it looks like another Tottenham win here, so betting on a correct score of 2-1 with 8.5 at William Hill, will definitely give a good return.
