Wrexham's compact midfield should make Wolves vary the angle of their attacks. Bristol City's meeting with Norwich turns on whether the home side can retain an outlet and prevent repeated deliveries. In both matches, the next receiver after a cross or clearance matters as much as the first possession.
Wrexham have useful connections through Cleworth's delivery, Moore's presence and O'Brien's support. Wolves can work around the crowded centre through Bueno and Said on one side, Trippier on the other, and Armstrong's movement. Trippier and Krejci have also connected across consecutive matches to bring another receiver into scoring positions.
James and both Traores remain unavailable, but Wolves' attack already operated without them at Bristol. Wrexham's missing attackers were also absent from the functioning group against Middlesbrough, where Rathbone supplied a scoring contribution from the bench. I expect active early duels followed by Wolves using width and another forward to renew their attacks. That range of demonstrated actions is why I'm siding with Wolves.
Norwich's central combinations and flank delivery give them two ways to move Bristol's block. Kvistgaarden has linked Musaba and Maghoma, while Stacey and Brooks have supplied runners arriving from the opposite side. Bristol showed effective quick attacks at Bolton, but their home match against Wolves became a prolonged retreat with little attacking relief.
Dickie and Adebayo are selectable again after missing that match, with Adebayo's workload still limited. Norwich's Field and Wright pairing already functioned during the absence of McLean and Mattsson, who now offer possible additional minutes. Norwich also have more recovery time between matches. I expect their repeated passing and deliveries to keep testing Bristol through the second half, which is why I'm siding with Norwich City.
