Norwich City will host Swansea City at Carrow Road on Saturday in another round of the 2023-24 EFL Championship campaign.
The home side are enjoying a good run of form at the moment and are closing in on a playoff spot. They played out a 1-1 draw against Bristol City last time out, falling behind early after the restart before Borja Sainz leveled the scores minutes later with his sixth league strike of the campaign.
Norwich City sit sixth in the league table with 72 points from 44 matches and will be looking to confirm their playoff spot in the final weeks of the regular season.
Swansea City are also playing well at the moment and continue their push for the top half of the pile after a slow start to the calendar year. They thrashed Huddersfield Town 4-0 in their last match, with four different players getting on the scoresheet in the final 20 minutes to hand the Swans their first victory at the John Smith's Stadium since 2008.
The visitors sit 14th in the table with 56 points and will be looking to continue their winning streak on Saturday.
