Norwich City host Leicester City at Carrow Road on Wednesday (September 20) in the Championship.
The hosts have enjoyed a strong start to their season and are now pushing for a return to the English top-flight. Norwich beat Stoke City 1-0 on Saturday, thanks Jack Stacey first-half opener, his first goal for the club.
Norwich are fourth in the league table with 13 points from six games. They are just two points behind second-placed Leicester and will leapfrog them with a win.
Leicester, meanwhile, have also performed well this season and will fancy themselves as early contenders for automatic promotion. They recorded a 4-1 win over Southampton in their last game, with four players getting on the scoresheet.
