Norwich City will host West Bromwich Albion at Carrow Road in the EFL Championship on Wednesday. West Brom have a three-point lead over the hosts and are eighth in the league standings.

The visitors are also winless in their last three league games. They ended their losing streak after two games last week, playing out a 1-1 draw against Leicester City. Samuel Iling-Junior broke the deadlock in the 10th minute, and Nat Phillips' own goal in stoppage time helped Leicester level the score.
