Team News
Norwich
Aston Villa
- Chris Hughton could be without Sébastien Bassong after the defender suffered a knee injury in the 1-0 defeat to Stoke City, but he could be risked with Michael Turner likely to continue to miss out.
- The centre back is a doubt with a groin problem, so Ryan Bennett looks set to resume his starting role.
- John Ruddy could be available again for the Canaries, but Andrew Surman remains sidelined. Steven Whittaker should keep his place at left back after returning from injury last weekend.
- Following the 6-1 hammering of Sunderland, Paul Lambert is expected to name the same starting XI for the trip to Norwich City.
- Aston Villa picked up no fresh injury worries during the win, but are still without long term absentees Stilian Petrov, Marc Albrighton, Richard Dunne, Chris Herd and Gary Gardner, who is back in training following a knee ligament injury.
- Karim El Ahmadi and Ciaran Clark missed the game on Monday through injury but could be fit to return to contention for a place in the squad.
