THE OPPOSITION
Talked about as promotion challengers in each of the last three seasons, this season looks like it could be The Canaries best chance of ending their three-year exile from the top flight of English football.
Norwich's summer was dominated by the departure of a host of key players. James Maddison and Josh Murphy made the jump to the Premier League with Leicester City and Cardiff City while Wes Hoolahan retired and Angus Gunn returned to parent club Manchester City.
Despite all that, City go into today's game second in the table, two points clear of West Bromwich Albion in third. Late drama has been very much the order of the day for Canaries' fans in recent weeks with Daniel Farke's side netting five injury-time goals in their last nine matches. The boot was the other foot last time out, however, as Derby County netted in the 87th and 90th minute to grab a 4-3 win at Carrow Road on Saturday.
Norwich have been one of the division's great entertainers this term with their last nine league games seeing 39 goals. Summer signing Teemu Puki (pictured above) has quickly become a fans favourite, netting 15 goals in 22 games since joining, while at the other end of the pitch Tim Krul has been earning rave reviews since he swapped Brighton for Norwich in July.
TEAM NEWS
Chris Mepham could be in line to return after missing the trips to Bristol City and Birmingham City but Lewis Macleod, Marcus Forss, and Emiliano Marcondes are definitely out.
For Norwich, they will be without Emi Buendia, Jamal Lewis, and Moritz Leitner, the trio are all likely to be sidelined until midway through this month.
THE MANAGER
Daniel Farke took over at Carrow Road in the summer of 2017 after two years as Head Coach of Borussia Dortmund II. Farke's playing career was dominated by three spells with SV Lippstadt 08, the club with whom he started his managerial career in 2009.
The 41-year-old spent six years with SV, earning back-to-back promotions from the Westfalenliga to the Regionalliga West, the fourth tier of German football. In 2015, Farke took over from Huddersfield boss David Wagner at Borussia II, a position he held until May last year when he headed to East Anglia.
