Premier League: Norwich City v Swansea City match preview

A look ahead to this weekend's fixture at Carrow Road

Ricky van Wolfswinkel could feature for Norwich

Matches between these two sides are always entertaining. In the past three meetings there have been a total of 16 goals between them. Both sides have conceded over 20 goals this season so there is no evidence to suggest that the goals should dry up this time round. Norwich will fancy their chances going into this home tie, boasting a positive record against Swansea, winning three out of their last four encounters in the league.

Swansea will travel to Norwich hoping to secure their fourth win on the road in the Premier League this season. The Swans have struggled for form this season having to contend with both the Premier League and the Europa League. However, the Welsh side will be in a triumphant mood after securing their place in the next round of the Europa League picking up a point against Swiss side St Gallen in their final group game.

Norwich forward Ricky van Wolfswinkel could feature after returning to training following a toe injury. But midfielders Robert Snodgrass and Anthony Pilkington are still out with knee and hamstring injuries respectively. Swansea will be without Chico Flores who is suspended, but they could welcome back Angel Rangel who should be fit after a two week layoff with a calf injury.

KICK-OFF: Sunday 13.30
