We travel away to Kenilworth Road to face Luton on New Years Day, 15:00 kick off. This week has finally seen us pick up some points again and hopefully something we can now build upon. Performances have been good in my opinion but final pass or shot selection have been off, if that wasn’t the case we would have beaten QPR and taken maximum points.

Norwich City begin 2025 with a trip to face Luton Town at Kenilworth Road in the Sky Bet Championship. City's New Year's Day fixture against the Championship's 19th-placed team kicks off at 3pm. The Canaries picked up four points from their last two fixtures, at home to both Millwall (2-1) and QPR (1-1).

The Opposition
It's been a difficult return to life in the Championship so far for the Hatters with just seven wins from their opening 24 league fixtures. Their home form has been promising lately, now unbeaten in six games at Kenilworth Road. When the teams met at Carrow Road in late November, Norwich were 4-2 winners.

The Manager
Rob Edwards
Luton boss Rob Edwards has just passed 100 games in charge for the club. In that time, he has managed to secure promotion via the play-offs before relegation from the Premier League last season. He has come under some pressure this season due to their difficult start to the season.

Squad update
Sorensen - OUT - Illness
Hills - OUT - Illness
Forsyth – OUT - knee - Potentially back this week but this game might be too early
Sargent - OUT - Had surgery - Potentially back this week but this game might be too early
Fassnacht - OUT - Completing sale to Young Boys in January 15th
Gibbs - OUT - 5-6 weeks with a reoccurrence of the hamstring issue that took him out from the start of the season.

Positive vibes!!!

ON THE BALL CITY!!!
