Norwich City are in midweek action on Tuesday, April 8 (KO 7.45pm), welcoming Sunderland to Carrow Road. It was defeat at the weekend for City, falling to a 2-1 loss to Plymouth Argyle at Home Park on Saturday. That result leaves the Canaries 11th in the table, eight points behind Bristol City and Middlesbrough in the final two play-off spots.
The Opposition
Tuesday's opposition Sunderland have enjoyed a strong campaign and look to have already secured their play-off place, with an outside chance of automatic promotion still remaining. Régis Le Bris' side are eight points behind second-placed Sheffield United ahead of the six remaining fixtures. They've won each of their last two games 1-0, at home to Millwall and away to West Brom.
Squad update
JHT suggested that there may be some more u21s back on the bench with player numbers looking thin on the ground again 15-16 fit players potentially.
(CM) Gibbs - FIT - 2 weeks - hamstring injury - Back in training and may be around the squad
(LW) Jurasek - OUT - Still feeling pain in his quad after training last week
(LB) Mahovo - OUT - 2-3 weeks - has suffered an injury set back, now something to do with his quad.
(CB) Doyle - OUT - 2 weeks - Calf injury - Targeting return for the last 2-3 games of the season
(GK) Mair - OUT - No timeline - Returned to the club after breaking his finger.
(RW) Springett - OUT - His season is over and J suspect he will be leaving in the Summer
(CM) Forsyth - OUT - His season is over after having knee surgery - last option
(RW) Dobbin - OUT - His season is over after injuring the opposite calf for which he was withdrawn against Stoke
(LB) Chrisene - OUT - His season is over after ankle injury sustained in the first challenge from Dennis vs Blackburn
Positive vibes!!!
ON THE BALL CITY!!!
