Given the attacking capabilities present in both squads and their propensity to engage in high-scoring encounters, this bet seems appealing for those anticipating a lively and goal-rich match.
Both Teams To Score

Watford’s home advantage and Norwich’s potential counter-attacking prowess suggest that each side could find opportunities to score, making this an attractive option for bettors looking for a balanced outcome.
Away Team Not To Score In 1st Half
The odds of 52.40 for Norwich City not scoring in the first half hint at Watford’s expected early dominance and ability to control the game from the outset. Historically, Watford has been capable of putting pressure on opponents early in matches, which might prevent Norwich from finding their rhythm until later stages.
Home Team Not To Score In 1st Half

This could lead to a tightly contested first half with few goals before either team finds its stride.
