It’s a big game for…

Norwich: After winning away at Old Trafford last week, Norwich must remain calm if they are to come away with points in this fixture. Winning away against Manchester United for the first time since 1989 is an impressive feat, but it would be more impressive if they were to back it up with a strong showing against Spurs.

Best stat…

7: Tottenham have put together an impressive run of seven League away games unbeaten, winning three of those. However, this will not affect this match, as Spurs play at home.

Remember when…

Tottenham bested Norwich 2-0 in September 2013, using good teamwork in attack to score two goals.

Player to watch…

Harry Kane: Tottenham’s English striker has been in impressive form recently, scoring 10 goals in his last 10 games. Norwich will have to contain him if they want to get some points from this game.

Past three meetings…

Norwich 1 (Snodgrass) Tottenham 0, Premier League, February 2014

Tottenham 2 (Sigurdsson 2) Norwich 0, Premier League, September 2013

Norwich 1 (Hoolahan) Tottenham 1 (Bale), Premier League, January 2013
