Preview

Norwich took the lead through Jacob Wright in gameweek nine, but conceded twice in the first 15 minutes of the second half in a 2-1 away defeat to league leaders Swansea. The Canaries have suffered four straight defeats in all competitions.

Southampton showed plenty of grit against arch-rivals Portsmouth on Sunday, holding onto a 1-0 advantage after Cameron Bragg was sent off just before half-time. Wednesday's hosts have won three of their last four league games ahead of the trip to Carrow Road.
