The Pink'Un has it's usual presser coverage article here.
Canaries.co.uk have the clubs official build up piece here.
Huddersfield have their own pre match piece here.

Ins, out's, shake em all abouts:
Norwich: Sorensen joins McCallum out with broken bones in his foot, this time a stress fracture. Giannoulis remains out with ankle ligament damage. Rowe remains out injured but both Idah and Byram are on the comeback trail, with the latter a very slim outside chance of playing. Pukki was also due to have a precautionary scan on a bruised foot yesterday. Otherwise the rest of the squad is said to be unscathed at this time.
Huddersfield: I haven't been able to glean much information this afternoon-evening and ran out of time, sorry.

Something a little extra:

Guessing that should be Sorensen joins McCallum out with broken bones...

Guessing it's just second nature to put Byram in relation to injuries

Ta, sometimes when I'm in a rush, my brain is already skipping ahead to the next thing... 😅

Sargent over Hugill..

[wr4sb 31]

Thanks. Wasn't a dig, was just worried Byram was injured again and I'd missed something... 

Then saw his name on the comeback trail. 😄

I know, it is welcome, I'm not infallible... well, not all the time anyway! 😂

Sargent over Hugill is a big call. That said he wasn’t great against Birmingham.

Rashica deservedly dropped.

I’d have picked Ramsey over Dowell personally based on last match.

[RugbyCanary 94]

I actually don't mind the look of that team.........

[pete 318]

No goals then

After the cup game, yup. Unless Hugill has improved... especially if it's a like for like swap for Pukki, we need pace and/or movement. Hugill did neither of those that night.

[JPukks 34]

So McLean is getting injured today then

[By Hook or Ian crook 917]

No Pukki in the squad at all is very bad news

Seeing as im wrong about most things watch Sargent get a hatrick tonight

[Ken Hairy 3,759]

Erm...... 🤣

This match has a bit more meaning than usual. I'm hoping it takes my mind off things for a good couple of hours (went to bed early last night....no sleep...took a Covid test at 4am. Positive😟). So it's a difficult day but just hoping the lads can lift me with a good performance and more importantly 3 points.  Can Sargent do it? Sinani against his old club. Rhodes surely will come on at some point (hopefully when they are 2 or 3 goals down).

Unsure about that team I must say but it is what it is.

This is either going to be Lamberts first game at home brilliant or Project Restart bad

If Dean Smith has ditched his mug o tea and sips elegantly from an espresso cup the game is ours...odds on it happening? 🤔

We will be watching for a very long while

[KiwiScot 1,436]

The problem of how to supply Pukki has been solved! He's been getting in Sargents way anyhoo

Sinani will score.

Sargent hatrick tonight!

[By Hook or Ian crook 917]

How must Ben Gibson feel being on the bench when Kenny McLean is playing left back. 
 

Surely would of made more sense to shift Big Andy to left back and play Hanley and Gibson together?

Oo oo oo I know the answer sir......

[Disco Dales Jockstrap 1,891]

Come on boys and girls, let's be positive. With Sargent up front, what could go wrong? I smell goaaaaaaaaaaaals!

Let's Ding-Dang-Dong our way to 3 points!

bit lightweight up top but heyho still 3 points.  Would hope Onel is put on at some stage, big lad need a bit of weight in there.

Fingers and everything crossed for much needed win.

Hopefully he'll be feeling reflective on how it was that he found himself there, and then commit to working hard on cutting out the mistakes.

Come on Sargent 🇺🇸 USA USA 🇺🇸 score some soccer homerrun touchdowns for us!

[Yellow Green Army 237]

That looks a strong line up to me. Here's hoping it clicks tonight and we get that much needed victory.
