REF’s picks

Backing Bristol City with no deficit to overcome offers a sensible angle in a tightly contested fixture involving two injury-hit mid-table sides. The hosts have enough at Ashton Gate to avoid defeat against a Norwich team missing several key regulars.

1. 1Bristol City enjoy home advantage and have shown resilience despite a heavily depleted squad.
2. 2Norwich travel with severe roster concerns, hampering their usual fluency on the road.
3. 3Both teams are missing essential defensive personnel, which could easily tilt a close game toward a stalemate.
