Norwich are heading into the match on the back of a 1-1 draw with mid-table side Bristol last Saturday. Borja Sainz’s 58th-minute equaliser helped the Canaries earn a point versus the Robins last time out and the result extended their unbeaten run to four games, recording two wins in the process. David Wagner’s men have not lost a league-match at Carrow Road since November 5, and they have won eight of their last nine home league games, scoring 23 goals and keeping four clean sheets in the process. The Canaries are searching for their 16th second tier win at Carrow Road, which will ensure their top six finish. Meanwhile, Norwich will play their final league match versus relegation-threatened Birmingham City at St. Andrew’s next week.
Swansea, on the other hand, are heading into the match on the back three successive wins against the likes of Stoke City, Rotherham United and Huddersfield Town, with an aggregate score of 8-0. Last weekend, the Swans thrashed the Terriers 4-0 at John Smith’s Stadium courtesy of second-half efforts from Jamal Lowe, Ronald, Jerry Yates and Liam Walsh. It was a dominant performance from Luke Williams’ side as they had close to 70% possession, registered seven shots on target, compared to zero by Huddersfield. The result ended their four-game winless run on the road and it was their 15th league-win of the season.
Norwich city probable starting lineup: Gunn, Stacey, Duffy, Gibson, McCallum, Nunez, McLean, Sara, Barnes, Rowe, Sargent
Swansea City probable starting lineup: Rushworth, Key, Cabango, Darling, Tymon, Walsh, Grimes, Ronald, Paterson, Lowe, Yates
