Norwich City welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Carrow Road on the final day of 2021-22 Premier League season.
Victory would see Norwich finish the season in 19th place if Watford fail to win at Chelsea, whereas Tottenham will secure fourth with a win no matter what Arsenal achieve elsewhere.
Team News
Billy Gilmour is a major doubt for Norwich after he suffered an ankle injury, which required him to return to his parent club – Chelsea for treatment.
Mathias Normann (ankle) and Ben Gibson (back) are also considered as doubts.
Kenny McLean (toe), Josh Sargent (ankle), Ozan Kabak (hamstring), Christoph Zimmerman (groin), Andrew Omobamidele (back) and Adam Idah (knee) remain ruled out.
Tottenham could be without Harry Kane as he continues to recover from illness which kept him out of training this week.
Cristian Romero (hip), Matt Doherty, Japhet Tanganga (both knee), Sergio Reguilon and Oliver Skipp (both groin) remain ruled out.
Stat Attack
- Norwich have claimed just one point from their last five league meetings against Tottenham (D1, L4).
- Tottenham have lost just one of their last eight league visits to Carrow Road (W5, D2, L1).
- Harry Kane has scored three goals in Tottenham’s last two league visits to Norwich.
- No team in the Premier League this season have conceded more goals than Norwich, with the Canaries having conceded 79 goals in 37 matches.
- Son Heung-Min has been involved in more league goals this season than any other Tottenham player, having delivered 21 goals and seven assists in 34 appearances.
Prediction
As they prepare to return to the Sky Bet Championship, Norwich can be proud of last weekend’s draw at Wolves because they played well overall across the pitch, with solid pressing, strong attacking intent and great saves despite unluckily conceding a scrappy goal.
Tottenham meanwhile were lucky to beat Burnley last weekend via a first-half injury-time penalty because despite their dominance, their finishing quality was poor which is something which Norwich could capitalise on if they play like they did last weekend.
Spurs though need at least one point to secure fourth and have good form at Carrow Road so I am expecting an away win, although the Canaries should at least look to produce a decent performance to give them a confidence boost going into next season.
Prediction: Norwich 1-3 Tottenham
Result: Norwich 0-5 Tottenham
