    Norwich City 0 - 0 Arsenal
    FT 90'+0'
    HT 0 - 0
    Attendance: 00,000
    Date: Sunday 29th November 2015
    Venue: Carrow Road
    Kick-Off: 04:15PM


    KIO's not606 Match Preview

    Norwich City welcome the Gunners to Carrow Road this afternoon in Round 14 of the current Barclays Premier League campaign. Having won just one of their last 13 Premier League meetings against the North London side, the Canaries will undoubtedly have to be at their very best if they are to take anything away from today's game. A big win for Arsene Wenger's side would see them climb to the top of the table, while defeat for City would leave them perilously close to the division's relegation zone.

    TEAM NEWS
    • Norwich City midfielder Alex Tettey remains sidelined for the visit of Arsenal because of a groin injury.
    • Captain Russell Martin is available, having missed last weekend's trip to Chelsea for personal reasons.
    • Alexis Sanchez suffered a tight hamstring in Arsenal's Champions League game this week but is set to play.
    • Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is fit after a hamstring injury and fellow midfielder Aaron Ramsey made his comeback from a similar problem on Tuesday.
    Alex Neil's Match Preview

    "We will be regarded as one of the smaller teams in the league, but even when so-called bigger teams come to our place, they have been happy to sit behind the ball, soak up pressure and hit you on the counter attack - and that sort of surprised me.
    "You would have thought that some of them would have come here and tried to impose themselves, go toe-to-toe, but that has not been the case."

    Arsene Wenger's Match Preview
    “I’m a bit negative to analyse now the Premier League teams because you know that when you go there, it’s always a special game for them,” Wenger said. “They raise their level and all the recent history of a team doesn’t play too much of a part in it.
    “You just want to [be] more focused. I think the key of the game will be more on our side than on the opponents’ side. I’ve said already - it’s not who we play, it’s how we play in these kind of games.”

    Personally for me that's the wrong line up. Mulumbu and Mbokani should be starting imo.

    What is with these ridiculous half & half scarves? A pathetic attempt to unite football fans? Don't the powers that be know it is a tribal thing?

    It also stinks of an inferiority complex on the part of NCFC, glorifying the day (one of many) that Arsenal visit Carrow Road.

    Grabban must do something extremely magical in training.

    Yes, I am thinking along those lines.
    Why is it that I am sitting in front of my PC, waiting to see what could be carnage, when I have a young Thai girl lying in the bed next door? I need my head testing!
