The Premier League is back in action with another round of important fixtures this week as Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa lock horns with Norwich City at Carrow Road on Tuesday.
Norwich City vs Aston Villa Preview
Aston Villa are in 13th place in the Premier League standings and have shown considerable improvement under Steven Gerrard in recent weeks. The away side suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat against Liverpool over the weekend and will need to bounce back in what is a must-win fixture.
Norwich City, on the other hand, are rooted to the bottom of the league table at the moment and will have to work hard to avoid relegation this season. The Canaries suffered a 1-0 defeat against Manchester United in their previous game and have a point to prove on Tuesday.
