Norwich City v Bristol City Championship leaders Norwich could have Moritz Leitner back in the starting XI after the German playmaker recovered from a calf injury. Defender Timm Klose is fit again, while Mario Vrancic might also be back following an ankle injury. Play-off challengers Bristol City have a near full squad available as they aim for an eighth straight league win. Changes are likely after the FA Cup loss to Wolves, with forward Andreas Weimann (back) being assessed. The Austrian did not feature against Wolves, while defender Jack Hunt could be involved after returning to training following a calf problem. Goalkeeper Niki Maenpaa (calf) is also stepping up his recovery and midfielder Korey Smith has started running again following a knee injury. The Canaries start the weekend with a two-point lead over Sheffield United, while the Robins, who are on a 13-match unbeaten run in the Championship and occupy the final play-off place, are two points ahead of seventh-placed Derby County. Match facts Norwich are unbeaten in seven league matches against Bristol City (W4 D3) since losing five in a row between 1999 and 2009. Bristol City have failed to score in their two league visits to Carrow Road under head coach Lee Johnson. Norwich have already won three more Championship points this season (63) than they managed in the entirety of last season (60). Bristol City are the only team in the top four tiers with a 100% win record in 2019, having won six out of six league matches so far. Teemu Pukki is looking to become the first Championship player to score in seven consecutive appearances since Jordan Rhodes in February 2013, who did so for Blackburn; Rhodes is now a team-mate of Pukki and set up one of his goals on this current run. All but one of Bristol City's 10 league goals during 2019 have been scored in the second half - their last nine have all come during the second half.

Obviously I want us to win but unless we are at our absolute best we will lose a close (hopefully) game. Norwich are a very good side and are one of those up again and down again type teams with pedigree good enough to reach the top tier again. A win for us would be wonderful but I'm not holding my breath even though we have gone to other fortresses and come away with the points.
If we play like we did in the second half against Wolves then we’ll win 2-0. However we’d already be 2-0 down if we play like we did in the first half!!!
O'Dowda makes it a 2-1 half time lead. Come on you reds. Come on QPR we need you to beat Middlesbrough.
Now we are up against the wall 3-2 to Norwich. Time for some changes I think. Just as I spoke we've made 3 changes Taylor, Watkins and Palmer. Let's see if this works.
Watched it second half we did not turn up,second half Norwich upped their game. Deserved the win. For the record the three subs did sweet fanny adams. Just going to watch the rugby comon England
