One of the matches to be played on 27 September will see Stoke City and Norwich City meeting on the field. The game will take place at the bet365 Stadium in Stoke-on-Trent, with Stoke City hosting. The match will kick off at 15:00 BST.
Stoke City narrowly escaped relegation to League One last season when they finished the championship in the 18th position out of 24 on the league table. Currently, they are occupying the second position in the EFL Championship league table, with 4 wins, 2 losses, and no draws. If they manage to keep this position until the end of the season, they will qualify for the Premier League promotion.
Norwich City finished the 2024/2025 season in the 13th position, safely away from the relegation zone. They returned to the Championship this season and currently stay in the 15th position of the league table, with 2 wins, 3 losses, and 1 draw.
Stoke City vs Norwich City – Betting Odds
The EFL Championship remains on the main agenda of major and smaller bookmaking platforms that offer football betting markets. Punters participate in betting on match winners, outright winner, as well as other common football betting markets.
Below we will take a look at some of the most popular betting markets for the match between Stoke City and Norwich City and present the current odds 7bet has to offer on these markets.
1X2 Betting Odds
At 7bet, we currently offer the following 1×2 betting odds on the Stoke City vs Norwich City match:
| Stoke City F.C. (1) | Draw (x) | Norwich City F.C. (2) |
| 1/1 | 13/5 | 5/2 |
The 1×2 betting market is considered the best place to start for beginner punters making their first steps in the world of sports betting. Also known as straight win, match result, or 3 way, this bet works for any sport that has two sides compete against each other and is especially popular in football.
The straightforward nature of this bet is based on the main principle of the game where the spectators are trying to predict the final outcome. While in different types of sports the outcomes will look differently, in any football game your three options are the following: the home team (1) wins, the away team (2) wins, or the match ends in a draw (x).
Depending on which outcome you find the most likely to happen, you can place your wager on the corresponding option. If you do predict it correctly, your stake will be eligible for a payout proportional to your stake size and the offered odds.
Even though the straight win bet is considered very simple and suitable for newbies, it is also very popular among seasoned punters.
Double Chance Odds
During its career, a football club gets to play against all sorts or rivals. Some of them will be stronger or weaker than their own club, others will be almost equally powered. For a common member of the audience, a game between two balanced teams who have an equal chance to win can be a thrilling experience. However, for punters, it adds another layer of difficulty to predicting the outcome and increases the risk.
Some bets are designed to help you in this situation and somewhat safeguard your stake against an unfavourable outcome. The double chance betting market is one such bet. Here instead of placing your wager on one possible outcome, you place it on two out of the possible three. Either of them will bring you a win, if they happen on the field. In football, these are the possible bets for the double chance betting market:
- Either the home team wins or the match ends in a draw (1x)
- Either the home team or the away team wins (12)
- Either the away team wins or the match ends in a draw (x2)
What you need to understand here, though, is that lower risks that the double chance betting market ensures will lead to lower odds and, correspondingly, lower potential payouts.
Before you decide to place a wager on this bet, you should consider if this bet is a good choice for the match in question. If one of the sides has a very clear advantage and is recognised as the favourite of the match, the double chance bet might not be the best course of action.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following double chance betting odds on the Stoke City vs Norwich City match:
| Stoke City F.C. or draw (1x) | Stoke City F.C. or Norwich City F.C. (12) | Draw or Norwich City F.C. (x2) |
| 2/7 | 3/10 | 17/25 |
Draw No Bet Odds
Another simple bet that will help you protect your bet to a certain degree is the draw no bet betting market. While there are no foolproof guarantees in sports betting, this bet does safeguard your stake against some unfavourable outcomes.
Let’s take a look at the way it works. As a punter, you are still betting on the winner of the match. If you predict the winning team correctly, your wager qualifies for a payout, just as it would in case of a straight win bet. If the opponents of your team win, you will inevitably lose your stake. However, if the match ends in a draw, you will get your wager back in full.
Similar to the double chance bet, the draw no bet betting market offers lower risks, but it will also have lower odds, so your win will yield lower payouts.
If you decide to play safe and place your wager on this betting market, make sure to check in advance if the bookmaking platform of your choice offers it on the upcoming match. In certain cases the draw no bet betting market is excluded from the offers.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following draw no bet betting odds on the Stoke City vs Norwich City match:
| Stoke City F.C. (1) | Norwich City F.C. (2) |
| 1/2 | 6/4 |
Handicap Betting Odds
If you roughly divide all betting markets into simple ones suitable for beginners and more advanced ones that work better for experienced punters, the handicap bets will definitely fall into the latter category.
To begin with, the working mechanism behind this type of betting market is more complicated than the more straightforward bets we described before. So punters may need more time to understand how they function. Adding to that is the fact that if you want to place handicap bets with any degree of responsible gaming, you need to have prior exposure to betting practices as well as the sport you are betting on. Below let’s take a look at how handicap betting works.
The main aim of handicap bets is to balance out the teams with uneven distribution of power and chances to win the game. That is why they are primarily applied to matches where one of the teams is considered a clear favourite, while the other is seen as an underdog. This can be due to a stronger or more experienced squad, history of playing at a particular tournament, or any other reason.
Having two unbalanced powers on the field renders the betting process pointless because the outcome is too obvious. So what do handicap betting markets do to turn that around?
To balance out this disparity and bring back the unpredictable factor into the game, handicap bets introduce specific conditions to the game. Simply put, it is not only about who will win the match but how exactly they do it. These balancing conditions will be different for various sports. In football, the most popular handicap betting market is the goal difference. Your aim as a punter is to predict who will win the game and how many more goals they will have to their credit by the end of the match.
A practical example of a handicap bet can look something like this. If Team A is considered the favourite and Team B is considered the underdog in the upcoming match, instead of predicting who will win the match, you try to predict what goal difference Team A will win with.
Let’s say, you placed a handicap bet that Team A will win with a -1.5 goal handicap. Now if your wager is to win, it won’t be enough for Team A to win the match, they need to have scored at least two goals more than Team B by the end of the game. However, this absolutely doesn’t mean that you have to predict the correct score. The final score may be 2 – 0, 3 – 1, or even 4 – 1, it won’t have any effect on your wager. The main thing is for the goal difference to be 2 balls or more. The only time you will lose your wager is if the score difference is one goal (for example, 1 – 0 or 2 – 1).
Handicap betting markets offer an interesting opportunity where you can bet on the losing team of the match. The main principle here is the same. The team losing the match has to do so with a certain goal difference for your wager to count. So if you bet that Team B will lose with +2 handicap, at the end of the match they should have only one goal less than their opponents (for example, 0 – 1, 2 – 3, or similar) for you to get a payout. If the goal difference is higher, you will lose your bet.
Handicap bets can be placed on various parameters of the game. At 7bet, we currently offer the following handicap betting odds on the Stoke City vs Norwich City match:
| Stoke City F.C. -0.25 | Norwich City F.C. +0.25 |
| 20/27 | 1/1 |
Other popular handicap lines include:
| Stoke City F.C. | Draw | Norwich City F.C. | |
| Starts 2 – 0 | 1/14 | 15/2 | 19/1 |
| Starts 1 – 0 | 2/7 | 13/3 | 13/2 |
| Starts 0 – 1 | 11/4 | 14/5 | 3/4 |
| Starts 0 – 2 | 7/1 | 19/4 | 1/4 |
| Starts 0 – 3 | 17/1 | 9/1 | 1/17 |
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) Odds
Both teams to score belongs to the category of betting markets that are recommended for newbie punters. It has a pretty simple mechanism that is covered in its very name. When you are placing a wager on this bet, you are trying to predict if both teams will send at least one ball into their rival’s net during the game.
Apart from an easy concept, it has another perk that makes it suitable for beginners. You don’t have to guess the correct score or even predict which team will win the match. This means your risk level is significantly lower than with many other betting markets.
You have two options to choose from when you are placing a wager on the both teams to score betting market. The “yes” option is for those who think that both teams will indeed have at least one goal to their credit by the end of the game. On the other hand, the “no” option applies to those who think that only one or even neither of the teams will open their score during the match.
Instead of making a random bet on this one, you can analyse the dynamics of both teams, presence of their top scorers on the field, and their history of playing against each other, to make an informed decision.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following both teams to score betting odds on the Stoke City vs Norwich City match:
| Yes | No |
| 10/13 | 1/1 |
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
The idea behind this betting market is quite simple, however how you will see it depends on how well you are familiar with the playing teams and their scoring tendencies, especially when it comes to playing against each other.
When you are placing a wager on the goal total betting market, often referred to as the over/under bet, your task is to predict whether the total sum of all goals scored in the game will amount to more (over) or less (under) than a specific number defined by the bookmaker.
The goal total betting market has some things in common with the both teams to score bet. For one, you don’t need to predict the exact final score. Moreover, you are not even concerned with the winner of the match. None of these aspects will affect your wager.
However, in order to avoid placing a random bet, you need to analyse the potential of both teams, know their current squad composition, stay up to date on their physical form, and research how they typically play against each other.
Let’s illustrate it with a practical example. Let’s say, you place a bet that the match between Team A and Team B will end with the total goal count over 2.5. This means that the total sum of all the goals both teams scored in the match should be 3 or more. In that case your wager will win. The actual score can be anything and any of the two playing teams can win the match. Whether the score is 2 – 1, 3 – 0, 1 – 2, or even 2 – 2, it won’t affect your wager. However, if the match ends with a total goal amount below 3, for example, 1 – 0 (total of 1), 0 – 2 or 1 – 1 (both total of 2), you will lose your wager.
You will notice that the goal total for this betting market is always presented with decimals. There is a good reason why the bookmakers prefer to do that. Use of whole numbers in the over/under bet can cause a huge misunderstanding among punters and bookies, and this is what we mean.
For example, bookmakers could have offered an over/under of 2 instead of 2.5. But then the match has a good chance of ending with exactly two total goals scored (2 – 0 or 1 – 1). So in this case, who is collecting the payouts? Will it be the punters who bet on over or the punters who bet on under? Bookmakers understood the amount of trouble this could create, so they decided to offer the goal total bet in decimals.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following over/under betting odds on the Stoke City vs Norwich City match:
| Over 2.5 | Under 2.5 |
| 20/21 | 20/23 |
Correct Score Odds
The correct score betting market also belongs to the category of more advanced bets that are suitable for punters with extensive betting experience and deep understanding of football in general and the tournament or match in question in particular. That said, it still remains one of the most popular betting markets, largely due to higher payouts.
As you may have guessed, your main task here is to predict the exact score that will appear on the score board by the end of the match. If you think a draw is the most likely outcome for this game, you can place your bet accordingly, just don’t forget to indicate the exact score of that draw, be it 2 – 2, 1 – 1, or a goalless 0 – 0 draw.
The correct score betting market involves some of the highest risks in the betting practice. This is why the odds and payouts that bookmakers offer on this bet are typically significantly higher than those for the match outcome or other betting markets. This may seem like an attractive deal, but before you decide to place your wager, assess how well you know both teams, which members of the squad they are bringing onto the field and whether their top scorers will be playing. On top of that, analyse their recent dynamics, any possible injuries, and their historic performance at the tournament you are betting on.
At 7bet, we currently offer the following correct score betting odds for some of the most popular scorelines on the Stoke City vs Norwich City match:
| Stoke City F.C. | Norwich City F.C. | Odds |
| 0 | 0 | 10/1 |
