Norwich City are currently navigating a challenging phase, having not secured a victory in their last four league encounters with Swansea City. This disheartening run includes one draw and three defeats, marking the club's longest winless streak against the Welsh side since a six-match stretch that lasted from March 1925 to December 1936, as noted by the BBC.
Historically, Swansea City have struggled at Carrow Road, managing only two wins in their last 17 league matches against Norwich when playing away. This record features four draws and 11 losses. However, the Swans will take some solace from their recent unbeaten streak in their last two visits to Norwich, which may bolster their confidence ahead of the upcoming fixture.
In contrast, Norwich City have demonstrated remarkable resilience at home, suffering just two losses in their last 28 league games at Carrow Road. During this impressive run, the Canaries have secured 17 victories and drawn nine matches, averaging an impressive 2.2 goals per game. This formidable home form has been instrumental in their league standing, making Carrow Road a daunting venue for visiting teams.
As Swansea City prepare for this encounter, they find themselves in a precarious position, looking to reverse an alarming trend of three consecutive away league losses. The last time the club experienced four straight defeats on the road was in March 2023, a scenario they will be keen to avoid against Norwich.
A key figure for Norwich is Josh Sargent, who has been in exceptional form, netting 15 goals in his last 19 Championship appearances at home. He is set to make his first league appearance at Carrow Road since October, when he faced Middlesbrough. Sargent's performance could be crucial in Norwich's quest to end their winless streak against Swansea City and reaffirm their dominance on home turf.
