For grammatical case

Only the nominative and absolutive cases (ie. those of the subject) are commonly found as zero-marked (either wholly or allomorphically). (Linguistic universals #6, #1104)

For number

Number affixes tend to be closer to the stem than case affixes, whenever the two are distinct (Linguistic universals #6, #7).

For word order

Languages with verb-final word order (SOV, OSV) almost always have an overt case system (Linguistic universals #8).
