Norwich City begin their Championship season with the visit of West Brom to Carrow Road on Saturday (15:00 BST).
The Canaries overcame MK Dons 4-1 in the EFL Cup first round last weekend while the Baggies beat Rotherham by the same scoreline to reach round two.
Philippe Clement's side have lost four of their past five opening day fixtures in the Championship while Albion have lost just once in five years and began last season with a 1-0 win at home to Blackburn.
- Norwich City have won each of their past two games against West Bromwich Albion in all competitions, and three of their previous four overall (L1); they could win three in a row against the Baggies for the first time since November 1995.
- West Bromwich Albion have won just one of their past five league games against Norwich City (D1 L3), though it was a 1-0 victory in this exact fixture last season.
- No side has won more points in the Championship in 2026 than Norwich (44 – W14 D2 L6), while they've only lost two of their past 10 league games at Carrow Road (W6 D2).
- Only Sheffield Wednesday (8 excluding deductions) and Oxford United (18) collected fewer away points in the EFL Championship last season than West Brom (19); though eight of those points came following the appointment of James Morrison (W2 D2 L2).
- Among players with at least 450 minutes in the EFL Championship last season, Norwich's Mohamed Toure averaged more goals (1.36) and goal involvements (1.82) per 90 minutes than any other player, though nine of his 12 goal involvements came in away games.
