Norwich City v Leicester City: match preview

Norwich City v Leicester City
Norwich City v Leicester City: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Norwich City have lost only once since the opening day and it is a mark of their quick readjustment to Premier League life that they came away from trips to Liverpool and West Ham Utd feeling that they could, and in the latter case, should have won. Now the aim is to put a run of home wins together; Bournemouth were beaten at Carrow Road last month and the outcome of Saturday’s match may hinge on how Leicester City respond to Arsenal’s emphatic bursting of their bubble last Saturday. Two attack-minded teams should produce a high-tempo, if at times untidy, spectacle. Nick Ames
