Looking in the back mirror Leicester were the better team at Ashton Gate, but still defeated 0-1 and of course hopefully Jamie Vardy and others will find the net in this home game vs. Norwich.

Norwich is one of the in form teams in Championship at the moment having good progress and in the play-off zone, doing well under their experienced manager, David Wagner.

Hopefully Enzo Maresca will do that one change, brining on Ricardo Pereira for Hamza Choudhury and just let the rest be as it is, too late to try new formations and change too much, as this game should be the one to trust to get a change of fortune.

Harry Winks and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall are both players that need to step up and show their worth as this game can see Leicester in a different light and hopefully give some hope back for fans of this football club.

Leicester are currently said to be fighting a three way battle, but still just talk about a scenario we do have no knowledge of at the present time.

Norwich compete in the EFL Championship, the second tier of the English football league system. The club was founded in 1902. Since 1935, Norwich have played their home games at Carrow Road and have a long-standing rivalry with East Anglian rivals Ipswich Town, with whom they have contested the East Anglian derby since 1902.

Norwich have won the League Cup twice, in 1962 and 1985. The club’s highest ever league finish came in the 1992–93 season when they finished third in the Premier League. Norwich have featured in the UEFA Cup once, in the 1993–94 season, where they were defeated in the third round, but en route became the first English club to defeat German side Bayern Munich at the Olympiastadion in Munich.
