Third placed Brentford drew 0-0 at home to Millwall and are on 76 points, Norwich are on 90 which means it is mathematically impossible for them to finish outside of top two which guarantees an automatic qualification.

Norwich spent the 2019/20 season in the Premier League but we’re relegated. They kept faith in their manager Daniel Farke and never sold their stars despite impressive performances from Teemu Pukki, Todd Cantwell, Max Aarons, Emiliano Buendia amongst others.

Finnish striker Teemu Pukki announced himself to the Premier League in the first half of last season with goals and became FPL fans favourite before going on 22 games without scoring, the club couldn’t hide their excitement as the #PukkiParty is back.
