Norwich City v Swansea City: match preview

Norwich City v Swansea City
Norwich City v Swansea City: probable starters in bold, contenders in light.

Norwich’s honeymoon period appears to be over and they may end up glad of the points amassed early on in the season. Defeat to Swansea would be their fifth in a row, but the Welsh side have won only one of their past seven so this would appear a good opportunity to start looking towards the mid-table positions once more. An injury to the in-form loanee Matt Jarvis is a particular blow to Alex Neil while the defence will be rejigged with the captain, Russell Martin, suspended. Nick Ames
