Manchester City beat Norwich 5-0 at the Etihad in the Carabao Cup, landing our model's 71% pick for a City win. Goals arrived early and often; Samba opened the scoring in the 29th minute, Cherki doubled the lead three minutes later, and Allan made it three after the interval. City's dominance reflected their recent form, having won their last five matches, while Norwich arrived in poor shape with just one win in five. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
