Premium Tips

Two Premium Tips for a Carrow Road meeting that has goals written all over it.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Mohamed Toure to score anytime11/10 (bet365)Mohamed Toure has been the one bright spark in a dismal Norwich run, scoring five goals in just seven appearances for a side that has lost its last four games. The Canaries keep leaking at the back but they do carry a threat going forward, and Toure is the man they look to. Portsmouth have conceded 13 goals and will not keep a determined home side quiet at Carrow Road, where Norwich will throw bodies forward. At 11/10 Toure is a fair price to find the net given his scoring rate, and he is central to any Norwich fightback in a game that should have goals.
Marko Milovanovic to score anytime11/4 (BoyleSports)Marko Milovanovic has two goals for Portsmouth and offers Pompey a threat against the division’s leakiest defence. Norwich have conceded 20 goals in 10 games and have not kept a single clean sheet all season, so visiting forwards have been handed chances all over Carrow Road. Portsmouth arrive in good heart after a 3-2 win over Sheffield United and will fancy their chances of adding to a Norwich side’s misery. At 11/4 Milovanovic is a generous price to get on the scoresheet in a fixture that has produced plenty of goals in recent seasons, including a five-goal thriller last term.

How Norwich City go into the game

Norwich sit 20th on nine points and have lost their last four, the latest a 1-0 home defeat by Southampton. Before that they were beaten 4-3 by Bolton and 4-3 at Middlesbrough, underlining how open they have been.

The Canaries have conceded 20 goals, the joint-worst record in the division, but carry a threat through Mohamed Toure, who has five goals in seven appearances.

How Portsmouth go into the game

Portsmouth arrive 16th on 11 points after a 3-2 win over Sheffield United. Before that they lost 1-0 at Southampton, with earlier draws at Charlton and against Blackburn, so the Sheffield United win was a timely return to form.

Pompey have scored 12 and conceded 13, spreading their goals around with Adrian Segecic, Zachary Swanson and Marko Milovanovic all among the scorers.
