Norwich City head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup confirmed that there are no fresh injury concerns ahead of Sunday's Sky Bet Championship fixture at home to Burnley. "We have the usual guys who are out, nothing from the game on Tuesday night. We'll look at the minutes they've had, especially the guys who have just come back with injuries," the head coach said. "We will rotate just a little bit, so as many people as possible are ready for the Christmas period. We're monitoring everything, like we do with all the players. "It's tough for Kenny. He's more or less always available, never injured. Now he's got the ban, that means he's been out for 30 per cent of the season. That's not something he's used to." A tough game, we need a real change from our recent performances Norwich have won just one of their past 10 league games against Burnley (D3 L6), failing to score in five of their past six matches against the Clarets. Burnley have won two of their past three away league games against Norwich (L1), as many as in their previous 16 visits (D3 L11). Norwich have already won 12 league games at Carrow Road in 2024, last winning more in a year in 2018 (13). They've scored at least three goals in five of their past seven league matches on home soil. Burnley are unbeaten in their past three away league games (W2 D1) and could equal a club record of four successive clean sheets in the league on the road, previously doing so in October 1980. Burnley have only conceded four goals in 10 away league games this season, becoming only the second side in Championship history (since 2004-05) to concede fewer than five goals in their first 10 away games of a season; the other was Reading in 2005-06 (three conceded).

Squad update **UPDATE** McLean - OUT - FA charge following the QPR game sees him banned for 4 matches. This is game 2/4 Forsyth – OUT - knee - 1-2 more weeks out, pictured back on grass today Sargent - OUT - Had surgery – 3 more weeks out, pictured can in grass today Gibbs - OUT - 8 weeks with a reoccurrence of the hamstring issue that took him out from the start of the season
So the team who score and concede for fun, against the team that don't concede....great. I'd expect a bit of a shake-up Sunday given how porous we've become, perhaps shift Sroenson to LB
If Chrisene, a specialist left back, is good enough for England under 21's why isn't he good enough for us. Why this obsession with playing people out of position - it seldom works.
Interesting that Gordon makes the bench over Fassnacht. Sorensen missing out on the squad completely would suggest another injury
Surprised Stacey is not starting, but Kellen is seemingly a better defender so it makes sense. Time for Schwartau to shine.
BBC Radio Norfolk commentary very low key. I get the impression that there is very little in the way of exciting action to report. NCFC had the majority of possession in the first half.
