Postmatch editorial
Norwich City upset the pre-match prices

The decisive turn arrived late when Teemu Pukki scored 86' for Norwich City.
The numbers leaned the same way as the scoreline: Norwich City led Shots on target 6-4. Burnley also shaded Possession 45%-55%.
Before kickoff, the median bookmaker prices made Burnley the favourite at 42.6% implied probability. That market lean missed.
