Norwich City host Leeds United at Carrow Road on Saturday (October 21) in the Championship.
The hosts enjoyed a positive start to their season but have dropped off the pace recently. Norwich drew 1-1 with Coventry City last time out. They took the lead via a Jonathan Rowe before a late own goal from Ben Gibson drew Coventry level.
Norwich are seventh in the league table with 17 points from 11 games. They're two points and two places behind Leeds in the points table and will leapfrog them with a win.
Leeds, meanwhile, have had mixed results this season but sit in the promotion playoff spots. They beat Bristol City 2-1 in their last game. Daniel James opened the scoring in the first half with a left-footed strike. Joel Piroe scored the winner early after the restart with a long-range strike from outside the area to take his tally for the season to five.
