Two sides in search of a morale-boosting victory go toe-to-toe as Norwich City play host to Brentford at the Carrow Road Stadium on Saturday.
The hosts head into the game on a five-game winless run, including four consecutive defeats, while the visitors have failed to taste victory in any of their last nine outings.
Norwich City were dumped out of the FA Cup last Wednesday courtesy of a 2-1 defeat against Liverpool.
They have now turned their sights to the Premier League, where they are on a three-game losing streak and are winless in their last four outings.
Norwich City remain rooted to the bottom of the league table after picking up just 17 points from 26 games.
Meanwhile, Brentford failed to find their feet once again as they suffered a 2-0 defeat against a rejuvenated Newcastle United side last time out.
They have now failed to taste victory in each of their last nine games, managing just one draw and losing eight in that time.
With 24 points from 27 games, Brentford are currently 15th in the league table, three points above Burnley in the final relegation spot.
