Norwich Form & Balance Check

Norwich City also decided to change their coach already during the current season. After more than 3 years, the German coach Daniel Farke had to leave the Canaries. The decision was made despite the first win of the season on 6 November. Norwich won 2-1 against Brentford. Farke was then sacked. With Dean Smith available due to his dismissal at Villa, the 50-year-old Briton became the new head coach at the University City club. Since Smith arrived, things have been looking up for Norwich. He won 2-1 against Southampton on his debut and picked up two more draws. On the last matchday, however, Smith suffered his first defeat with Norwich. The Canaries lost 3-0 to Spurs.

Harmless Offense

With 10 points, Norwich are at the bottom of the table. But Newcastle and Burnley also have only 10 points to their name. The rescue 17th place in the table, where Watford currently stand, is only three points away. With a win against United, the Canaries could possibly catch up. As success seems anything but realistic, it is not helped by the fact that Norwich have the worst attacking record in the league with only 8 goals so far this season. On average, the Canaries score only 0.5 goals per game. How is that going to keep them in the league?

Man United form & balance check

The subject of the championship has to be put aside by Manchester United for the time being this season. Under Ralf Rangnick, the season’s goal is now Champions League football. When Rangnick took over as head coach last week, United were 10th in the table. Rangnick’s debut was a successful 1-0 win over Crystal Palace. Before that, United won 3-2 against Arsenal. With two wins in a row, the Red Devils have therefore already moved up to 6th place. With 24 points, Manchester are now only 3 points behind fourth-placed West Ham. Against Norwich, the third win in a row is firmly in the cards.

With counter-pressing to success

Under Ralf Rangnick, Manchester United are expected to regain their former dominance. The German coach wants his team to play counter-pressing after losing the ball, similar to Klopp’s Liverpool. In addition, the zero should be held. With the 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace, United showed the first signs of the new game idea. In order to be sure of winning the upcoming away match, Rangnick spared all his top stars in the top flight on Wednesday. With an almost A-youth team, United drew 1-1 with Bern in their last group game.
