A resurgent Arsenal visit Carrow Road on Boxing Day to face the Premier League's bottom club Norwich City.

Mikel Arteta's men have won each of their last three Premier League matches and are through to the EFL Cup semi-finals following their midweek win over Sunderland.

The Canaries, meanwhile, are bottom of the table yet only three points from safety and a victory on Sunday would be a major boost for Dean Smith's team.

Norwich City vs Arsenal latest odds

Norwich have won just one of their last 14 home matches in the top flight and bet365 price them as clear outsiders at 7/1 (8.00).

Arsenal, meanwhile, have won just three of their nine games on the road this term but are odds-on favourites at 2/5 (1.40) with the draw at 15/4 (4.75).

Norwich City vs Arsenal first goalscorer

Arsenal's top scorer this season is Emile Smith Rowe who has netted seven times and the 21-year-old is offered at 7/1 (8.00) to break the deadlock at Carrow Road.

Alexandre Lacazette is the shortest priced player to open the scoring at 15/4 (4.75) ahead of Gabriel Martinelli at 5/1 (6.00) while Teemu Pukki is available at 9/1 (10.00) for the hosts.

Norwich City vs Arsenal preview

Since their 4-0 loss at Anfield at the end of November, Arsenal have been in strong scoring form, netting in seven consecutive matches and racking up a total of 19 goals.

Norwich for their part have struggled badly in the final third this season and they have managed just eight strikes in 17 matches, by far the lowest total in the division.

Norwich's only goal in the last five matches came late on against fellow strugglers Newcastle, who had played most of the game with 10 men.

The Canaries have lost by a two-goal margin on eight occasions this season in all competitions and backing them to go down against the Gunners once more should appeal.

Norwich City vs Arsenal tips & predictions

The visitors are priced at 6/5 (2.20) to win with a -1 handicap which looks like an appealing option while investing in the Gunners to keep a clean sheet at evens (2.00) could also be of interest.

Odds correct at the time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.
