Norwich City
- Norwich City’s form is the worst in the Championship 2025/2026 with the Canaries sitting in 23rd place after collecting just nine points from their first 15 games.
- Norwich City are winless in seven Championship home matches, with seven defeats.
- Their last three matches have seen them go down 2-0 at home to Hull City, draw 1-1 away to Sheffield Wednesday and lose 1-2 at home to Leicester City, which is worth considering for our Norwich City vs Oxford United betting tips.
- Philippe Clement has been working on a tactical overhaul of Norwich City since his appointment in mid-November 2025 and his preferred style is a progressive possession-based 4-2-3-1 with lots of high-tempo build-up, collective pressing and wide overloads.
Oxford United
- Oxford United are only marginally better off in 21st after taking 13 points from the same number of fixtures, so there are real relegation implications attached to this midweek encounter at Carrow Road, making this an intriguing Norwich City vs Oxford United prediction.
- Oxford United have won two and drawn one of their last eight Championship away games.
- Oxford United are a much more pragmatic side with Gary Rowett’s 4-2-3-1 system focusing on compact defending, situational pressing and direct counter attacks.
- His approach has brought some stability to Oxford United since he joined in December 2024 and they will look to be compact and physical on Tuesday, but are always a little more exposed when playing away from home, which could be relevant for Norwich City vs Oxford United betting tips.

- The Canaries have been so poor at home this season that they look short enough to oppose for this and the double chance option looks the smart pick.
- Both teams have been conceding too many goals, however, with Norwich City breached 13 times in their seven home matches and Oxford United averaging 1.12 goals per away game this season.
- So the BTTS market at 1.75 seems enticing for this one.
